Like most "fashion" items, it depends on the area. The saying, "Dress for the job you want, not for the job you have" applies here. If the umpires at "the next level" (whatever that means for you) wear this, then it's okay for you to wear it. If not, then don't.

Personally, I think that if it's cold enough to wear a long-sleeved undershirt, that you should wear either a long-sleeved over shirt or a jacket.
