I also agree.
Before my first year of umpiring, I listened to my wife and I tried to piece it together with cost as the primary object. Before the first campaign was over, I was upgrading my mask, chest protector, plate shoes and leg guards.
The total cost of the original gear:
Mask: $45 ... CP: $60 ... LGs: $45 ... Plate shoes: $60 ... TOTAL: $210
New gear:
Mask: $180 ... CP: $140 ... LGs: $90 ... Shoes: $100
The total cost after upgrading: $720
What cost would have been if I had been wise (not listened to wife): $510
