Honigs makes the MLB plate coats.

I ordered one in early December when they were slightly discounted and grouped in a pre-sale for quicker shipping by February, or something like that. They typically take much longer.

Actually Hardwick's makes the coats, Honigs sells them. That's the only place you can get a plate coat.

Honigs also the MLB plate coats to the MLB umpires through Hardwicks

Yep, make sure you get the right size. No returns.

I'm tall and thin, also, and have had to had all my plate coat taken in, for that form fit. Just go to a trusted tailor, with your biggest chest protector, and make sure it fits in your stance.

And, make sure that top button is really secure.

Get your measurements taken, and send them to Honigs. Hopefully, having a 'blueprint" will get you the fit you desire.
