This is my second year doing softball. Last year I got 2 pairs of Smitty combo pants that lasted me through HS and Travel ball. Started the year with them but I'd like to get something better. I got a pair of Gerry Davis plate pants off ebay and like them pretty well.

So two questions:

1) In Alabama we usually will do a V/JV doubleheader and in Summer we'll work plate/base/off on a three game rotation. Do most people use combo pants for this or do you switch from plate to base pants?

2) Any comments on Gerry Davis, Cliff Keen or Plus POS? I've seen too many pairs of pink Fecheimers to put them on the table. I'll have to break down and buy a pair of those next season if I get my National but I'll delay it till then.

Thanks for your input.
