Honig's Red Shirts
The red shirts at Honig's appear from the picture to be a bit more of a scarlet or a maroon than just a straightforward red. Is the colour they sell the correct colour? Because the picture of the Smitty's red shirt looks a lot more like a red.

Which one is correct?

There is no correct shade of red.

The industry standard red umpire shirt looks pretty good ... on the golf course.

Oh come on. Somebody here has to know red. You either love it or you hate it. There have to be a few non-haters here.

It doesn't matter what shade of red one wears, none of them match unless they are from the same supplier and the entire crew looks like clowns anyway. I've owned a red shirt for over 15 years and was forced to wear it twice. I hated every minute of it!

Thanks for the link, Don. I really miss Garth on this board and I got a chance to read some of his posts again. Sad that he is not here anymore.

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.
