I wore the Flex fit at my national last summer and nobody said a word, nor was anything noted on my evaluation.
On a related note, some new shoes were also presented at the committee meeting. They are the New Balance shoes that the MLB umpires wear. Complete with the big, white N on the side and a white sole.
When the obvious question was asked (what about all the white), the answer given was that if we wear the same stuff the MLB guys are wearing it helps our umpire's credibility. I'm not so sure about that.
It was mentioned that ASA will try to work with New Balance to produce the shoe in an all black model, but no guarantees at this time.
