Uniform Question

Officials working JUCO games in Iowa have been wearing those for a couple years now, at least. I think there was some talk about letting state associations allowing HS officials to wear them under state options...did that ever fly?

We've been wearing them in Florida with our state's blessing for about 4 seasons. Personally, I like the zebra stripes better.

They are approved for HS games in Washington State. We have our choice of wearing the gray or stripes - the only requirement is that the entire crew has the same shirt type.

To have the option, that's a good deal there!
I prefer the greys over stripes any day. They're just so loud...
Although we wear them for Pro-AM, at the HS level we can only wear them for summer & rec ball

Where is it so loud? Up there in Washington state?

New Hampshire appears to wear the Mendy Rudolph Memorial grey with thin stripes.

I prefer zebra; its a lot easier to peripherally catch where your partners are.

Besides, the vertical stripes make this aging body look a little less plump.
