Those shins look homemade to me. Hockey shins are nowhere near that huge. There are some great hockey shins that work very well for umpiring, but these look ridiculous. I like the Reebok 10K or Warrior Hustler models myself.

I actually just searched slob and umpire and came up with this....it is possible that he is a cricket player and or umpire...I just thought the photo was funny.
