In Florida, it's left up to the local assn. We switched to grays 6 years ago, but I can't give you a reason why. I don't like them. I've contended all along that zebra stripes provide more of a contrast to the players, crowd and bench areas. That contrast makes it easier to pick up your partners out of the corner of your eye and across the floor.
I have a feeling that is actually the reason why some officals like them. They don't want to "stand out" any more than necessary (or so I've been told). I've always felt that was a cop out. We're supposed to stand out...that's why we have uni's in the first place.
