Spot-bilt has actually been gone for several years now.
Shoes are variable- some areas allow "some" white, some still demand all-black-which are almost impossible to find and are getting harder to re-create given the synthetics used now.
What fields do you have- grass, turf, both? If you are calling "pastures", a regular pair of cleats may be in order. If you are calling on well manicured fields, turf shoes will work. On turf you can even get by with cross trainers.
New Balance seems to be the only name brand still interested in marketing to officials. Many of the baseball trainers- adidas, Mizuno, Nike- are well suited for officials but none are all-black if that is what you require. Eastbay is a good source.
Try searching eBay too. I picked up a good pair of new Reebok NFL turf shoes several years ago that I never saw advertised in any of the officiating supply companies.
