I ordered two, and they are scheduled to arrive next week. I do not really need one, but also could not pass on this bargain (free shipping on orders over $50). My son will get one of them (hopefully it will fit OK, he is 13), and I will put the other one to good use somehow, starting with me deciding if I like it better than my current one. Thanks, Luke, for giving us a "heads up" on this.

I'm not able to get the amazon link to work in either firefox or IE? Is anyone else having trouble with it.

just go to amazon.com and type in west vest. After this, in the left-hand corner click on the "Sports and Outdoors" link. It should be one of the first options.

Tim,

I use SeaMonkey, which is a Mozilla project, and FireFox. The link worked in both for me. (I only use IE if a site is specifically enhanced for IE.)

Tim are you still trying to get use out of that that old 486 you bought for $2,000 about 15 years ago?

If you need a real picture, go to eBay. Search for "West Vest umpire" and a few will show up. A couple have recent pictures, not just the stock image.

It is a platinum model in low level lighting.

***posts are in response to SAUmp's query as to what kind of WV was shown on e-bay, which he deleted.***

The e-bay picture:




The platinum model from Gerry Davis Sports:



There are slight cosmetic differences, which is due to the semi-annual re-vamping of products.

This link will show you all three West Vests - the original, the Platinum, and the Gold, as well as the Wilson MLU knockoff.

I received mine today, $36.98 with shipping, and it looks absolutely great. I removed the hanging arm guards and it is going to make a wonderful back-up chest protector.

Thanks Luke!

The deal is no more. The price is now 66 bucks. I'm glad I got two. I'm guessing the price was just mismarked, and after the rush of sales they fixed it.

Thanks again Luke.
