In American Legion they can wear red...I thought how gay a red shirt?.... well I bought one, have not wore it yet, will I? probably. Also I started out umpiring in Adult Softball for USSSA who only wears Red. I thin it's not a bad color, maybe the reason no one likes it cause it is never worn. I bet if MLB umpires started to wear Red alot of Umpires would switch...LOL

I LOVE RED SHIRTS. I have many and wear to all kinds of sporting events; T shirts, polos, long sleeve, sweats, hoodies and a couple of jackets.

I would not umpire a baseball game with one on though. Never have, don't see it happening.

worked an adult amatuer town team all star tournament last 4th of July, three man crew, one Red, one White and one Blue. We got lots of compliments...on how we looked AND how we worked the game.

I finally found a picture of the shade of red I think should only be sold:

I think it looks quite neat. Too bad nobody else wears them.

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.
