Mike,
I haven't seen anyone around here (also NW suburbs of Chicago) wear the new style MLB shirts at any level (HS, College, Travel/Rec ball).
In Illinois, the IHSA has decided to allow "any color" shirt, as long as you match your partner.
The biggest "trend" I'm seeing is with pants, moving away from heather to "charcoal", with the Honigs poly-wools emerging as the "go to" color for serious umpires.
