College stripes

Who is the manufacture for the college officials stripes? Since they have gone to the black stripe under the arm I was wondering who supplied their shirts? Do they have one supplier or are there many?

You can get them from almost anywhere now... Cliff Keen has a nice shirt and so doesn't The Officials Choice.

While we're on the topic of the "new" College style shirt. The IHSA (Illinois) has just issued a message that these shirts are NOT approved to be worn.

Kind of silly. If all three officials are wearing the shirt, what does it matter?

So you're saying you wouldn't care if the crew before your HS game were all wearing the gray shirts? I mean, what does it matter as long as all 3 are wearing the same shirt? Right?

And the problem with that would be...?

If the level allows grey shirts to be worn, then what difference does it make?

The things I do not get about these shirts are they are still black and white. Why does it matter if the all officials wear the same exact jersey? If that is the case then we should be upset when one person wears a mesh shirt and another person wears polyester.

Peace

Wrong.

I'm saying the rule states "The official's uniform shall be a black-and-white striped shirt, black pants, shoes and socks." What does part of this rule does that shirt violate?

Ditto in Wisconsin! However....they were very cool when asked about adopting an optional "alternate" shirt, like the 'Gray Shirt w/black pinstripe' option. (That was two years ago.) What's the difference if the crew is uniform? Any arguements?

What does any of that have to do with wearing the shirt with the black inseam under the arm?

These shirts are approved in Minnesota as long as all 3 officials wear them.
