New grey shirts

Has anyone heard of a new grey pinstripe shirt with side panels? I've been told they exist, but never seen them. Anyone have a link?

Yeah they grey shirts are cool, if you're somewhat fit. I love 'em, but they just make a big guy look bigger.

I've never found a grey shirt made me look any bigger than I already am... I personally like the look, but they're just never caught on.

The wide black stripe, I like as well.

When I first got started, back in the later part of the 20th century, IAABO had us wearing a gray jersey, with blue piping, that could be worn with either blue, or black pants.

I really wish they would let us wear either the stripes or the grey with pinstripes. Give us a choice like baseball.

Guys you don't want to go there. I relate some other sport history. Soccer stated with Black as the only approved shirt color. Then they added 1 alternate color. That lasted ~4 years. Then they introduced 3 new colors, with a stripe pattern. Then started adding one new color every 2 or so years. Most recently added 1 more color BUT changed the stripe pattern, making all former shirts out of style. Comparing Basketball to Soccer it you work College and HS in basketball you have to have only 2 shirts 1 with wide side panel, one without. To work both levels of soccer and be properly equipped you must buy 9 different color and pattern combination in short sleeve and 9 in long sleeve.

Trust me you do not want to start this crap in Basketball.
