That same guy has been selling those navy w/stripes shirts on eBay for about five years now. He's located up in the Great White North, so maybe it's a Canadian thing. I have never seen one down here in The States.
Personally, I don't think they look that bad- at least compared to some of the other oddball color combinations out there.
As for red shirts, I have one that I bought used on eBay for ten bucks a few years ago. We have some guys that I work summer leagues with that think red is uber-cool and, if they want to wear red, I got red. Mine's a good old +POS and when I say "red", this baby is, like, fire engine red! As a shirt color, I could take it or leave it. They look okay- at least, they don't instill in me the same revulsion that they seem to in others.
Another eBay find was a brand-new, still in the wrapper, genuine baby blue Elbeco. Dropped five bucks on that one and break it out once or twice a year for league games if the weather's not too warm. The Elbeco's were really before my time- and I'm glad of that! Ironing those suckers is a pain!
