I do everything I possibly can to avoid wearing H.S. powder blue ... except wearing red.

I just LOVE the red shirt !!!!

I wish they would change our association's bylaws to allow us to mauve, puce, teal, and magenta.

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

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.

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!!!
