You don't have to be a member of ASA to buy their equipment. Trust me, they will sell anything they have to anyone. That is what the whole issue of ASA pants for National assignments is really all about, the money.

Any other places to buy ASA certified equipment? No. Any other places to buy umpire pants and equipment. Yes. Bunches of them. Honigs, Lester's Upstate Sports, Officials Supply and lots of others.
I wasn't aware that it was mandatory to have the Fechheimer pants for anything below National level. However, if you want to advance, I'd recommend wearing them.

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!

I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.
