I wear beltless with pleats, I think they look better and they are a little roomier when you run. As for underarmor/mcdavid debate, I go with what ever is cheapest, go to kmart and check out their nobrand stuff. I believe Official's choice is the only one licensed to sell IAABO stuff.

I remember a game I filled in for three years ago where the guy I worked with had a hockey top (collar and long sleeves) on with sweat pants and white tennis shoes. If you all can believe it this was a boys varsity game. Where or who got this clown from I'll never know and not sure I want to. This forum won't allow me to type what I said to the AD after the game.

Including the orange armbands?

In FED, women basketball officials have the option of wearing a black coulotte skirt, long white knee-high socks, and white officiating shoes.
In my 25 years, I've only seen one woman wear that particular garb.
It looked pretty silly.
Hey Juulie, think we should try this?

Anyone know who's got the best prices for the Sansabelt brand pleated pants?? I don't like the look of the Honig's pleated pants I have, and was looking to try the Sansabelts.

its a place called pro-ref.com...they have good pants

In our association, we wear pleated, belt-less pants. I got mine from The Official's Choice when they had a 2 for 1 sale at the beginning of the season. Please be warned that their pants run tight and they do not taper much in the leg.

Everyone in my area wears Mesh.

In our state, we wear CCA jackets, even for high school. This saves us from having to have two different jackets.

I wear Patent Leather Converse. I love them. Unfortunately, I only bought one pair. This year I tried the Reebok Patent Leather. I did not like them.

I wear black tights. I also wear a sleeveless black Starter shirt I bought at WalMart.

Well, it would certainly interject a note of humor into the game!

Sansabelt pleated
Poly shirt (looks better coming out of the bag, imo)
Nike dri-fit undershirt
Patent leather shoes - and I like 'em a lot


A couple of weeks ago I had a partner wear a shirt with a black floppy collar that zipped up the front. Half way through the game I noticed that he's unzipped it halfway down his chest, showing his white undershirt and gold chain he's wearing. Not to mention all his clothes were faded, like he hadn't bought a new uniform since 1990. (Then again, maybe he hasn't) And his glasses kept falling off. Ugh. That game was frustrating.

Shirt: New officials choice Micro softer, or McDavid shirt, all depends how I feel.

Pants: I have 2 pairs, both Honigs brand, beltless, 1 pair pleated, one pair flat front.

Jacket: My association has their own warm up jacket.

Understuff: I have a pair of Bike compression shorts, a pair of Under Armour Compression shorts and Nike compression shorts. I alternate through them. I also wear the McDavid HDC undershirt.

Shoes: Converse Patent leather, I'm in the process of buying a new pair of the officials choice brand. I like the patent leather look a lot.
