We wear shoes, socks and a shirt around here!

In years past, MLB umpires wore their Elbeco shirts under the Formal Base Coat. In the '70's, they flipped the collars out over the lapels of the coat for that "disco look". They never wore a shirt under the coat at the plate.

Now I wear a plate coat and other than the WV Platnimum, it's either UnderArmour or (if it's cold) UnderArmour and a turtleneck (usually red). I cannot see the sense in wearing a CP, a navy or black pullover shirt and then a plate coat.
