Whatever you do, don't buy from +POS. I've given them numerous opportunites but their quality is poor and their service is lousy.

Honigs is usually competitively priced and their service is excellent.

However, I like Sansabelt slacks, which I get from DDD Officials Wear, near Charlotte.

I have always had good luck with Lester's Upstate Sports ( www.Lestersupstatesports.com ) Service is second to none.

I cannot help you with the shoes. I would imagine that if you picked up some non-hemmed pants, you could get them tailored to fit your needs. I would hope that you get your pants tailored so they look good, not to fit a set size. Your referee pants should not fit the same way your pants do you wear on a suit.

Peace

This is the best picture I could find.

This picture is a good example as to what your pants need to look like.



Peace

Are you sure you don't want 2 shoes?

I would call Honig's if that size is not on their website. They may be able to special order for you. They can also hem the pants for you if you know how long you want them.

Pants shouldn't be a problem, as long as you get them unhemed. Regarding the shoe, you're probably going to have to special order it from a local shoe store.
