I finally found a picture of the shade of red I think should only be sold:
http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?...ayphotohosting I think it looks quite neat. Too bad nobody else wears them. Last edited by tip184; Thu Jan 22, 2009 at 06:08pm. |

What in hell is that navy shirt with the shoulder gussets all about? Anybody else ever seen those? And would you buy a shirt from a guy that looks like he's going to have an outburst? |

That same guy has been selling those navy w/stripes shirts on eBay for about five years now. He's located up in the Great White North, so maybe it's a Canadian thing. I have never seen one down here in The States.
Personally, I don't think they look that bad- at least compared to some of the other oddball color combinations out there. As for red shirts, I have one that I bought used on eBay for ten bucks a few years ago. We have some guys that I work summer leagues with that think red is uber-cool and, if they want to wear red, I got red. Mine's a good old +POS and when I say "red", this baby is, like, fire engine red! As a shirt color, I could take it or leave it. They look okay- at least, they don't instill in me the same revulsion that they seem to in others. Another eBay find was a brand-new, still in the wrapper, genuine baby blue Elbeco. Dropped five bucks on that one and break it out once or twice a year for league games if the weather's not too warm. The Elbeco's were really before my time- and I'm glad of that! Ironing those suckers is a pain! |

I just LOVE the red shirt !!!!
I wish they would change our association's bylaws to allow us to mauve, puce, teal, and magenta.

I would still bet, if MLB wore these shirts next season, honigs would run out from all of the amateur umpires buying them up... and before anyone ask. Yes I do have one, have not wore it as we only wear it in Am legion games, but I know this summer it will be on.

I'd kill to wear something other than navy blue during HS season.....

The HS group here allows for any color to be worn as long as both partners match. I only carry two colors, Black and Powder, and I always wear Black on the plate. The way I see it is, Hot is Hot! What is a couple of degrees?
If a partner contacts me and wants to wear a different color, then I'll bring it, but there are too many colors to pick from and I don't work enough HS games to warrant carrying more than 5 shirts in my bag. Long sleeve black plate, short sleeve black and powder plate, and short sleeve black and powder base. I should probably just take the powder plate one out of the bag. |

I work a tournament during the summer on 4th of July weekend, and on all the games of the 4th of July we wear red white and blue, seeing as we run a 3 man crew... looks pretty sharp IMO, and have been told it looks pretty good... of course i take it to other tournaments, because it doesnt hurt to switch up the colors every once in a red moon

There's three of 'em I wouldn't trust with my daughter and three of 'em I wouldn't trust with my son ... Is that what you're saying?

It's getting to the point that no one wears that one unless they have to, either. It's become black, MLB polo, cream, and then navy as the popular order. With me, it's black, cream, gray, MLB polo, navy. And I too love that black long sleeve. Any time I am UIC, I choose black, and if it's extremely hot, cream or gray or maybe MLB polo.

are you referring to all of them wearing a watch, or some type of wrist band?

Honigs sells a bunch of different colors. True. But, the point should be....do you as the PU or UIC match your partner? If yes...than wear what ever color you want. I made a post on a different blog here about wearing Hawaiian shirts and even bringing out the balloon protector for a JC game. It worked...we matched and the game went off without a hitch. It's who's wearing the shirt, not the color of the shirt. Nuff' said!!!
