Our association wears black and polo blue for HS games and black, polo blue and creme for summer ball.

Red is usually reserved for disco queens and east side whores.

Honigs usually has good deals on starter packages, which normally come with a navy blue shirt. Most areas still wear the navy.

Yikes! My group voted for red for next season. I don't care for cream because it's the same color as the baseball after an inning. +POS has a silver that pretty snappy.

I'm working on a sponsorship from a big jersey maker for our group. We might even be working in Maroon shirts with silver and black trim. I've seen a mockup, with a black hat, and it's not bad. Of course, instead of Blue........

Damn! I still have a Red Shirt as part of my ensemble but I don't think it's seen the light of day in 5 years!

Maybe I oughta see if we could work that into Saturday's night game! Hey, I think that I still have a Red Plate Coat in the closet, too!

Is this everywhere? I just got a red and haven't gotten a chance to wear it. I don't want people to think I'm a disco queen.

Since the IHSA requires a navy shirt, the navy cap would be the correct one to wear.

Blue would be the first choice but Lavender would go nicely, also!

If the pros started wearing Lavender, there would suddenly be a run on Lavender umpire shirts by everyone here.
