In baseball, softball and soccer, officials have been wearing whie on their shoes for years.
In NC, we're allowed to wear shoes with white on them. I wear them during football. We wear the black pants with the white stripe. I like the look of a shoe with a white swoosh or the Reebok stripes. Makes the uniform pop!
I don't wear them in basketball because we wear the gray shirt. But I don't object if others do.
Opening the door to shoes that are not 100% black allows officials a much wider variety of shoes to wear. Personally, I think it's something Mr. Adams really needs to get over it. That type of thinking is very old school.
