best place to purchase the black/white striped garment for scorer

Even though it's only recommended by NFHS, was looking at purchasing a black/white striped garment for the official scorer to wear during games.

Any suggestions?

Our local Rec League gives these shirts out FREE to our youth officials each season. Seems to work ok for them.......and, since all you're really doing is sitting there, it should meet your needs.

Then you really didn't need our help, did you?

You should have just told us you were buying striped shirts for the season.

Ump Attire is good. So is Officials Choice

For your purposes, it shouldn't really matter.

Then I guess you've made funeral arrangements as well. What type of casket did you go with? Or are you going the cremation route? Inquiring minds want to know.

I did look at the other suggestions, and did discuss it. The consensus was not to go with a vest or little pullover, but to go with a regular official's shirt.

Unless there is somewhere cheaper that can be suggested.

Foot Locker. Get the collared shirts so that the officials will be sure to identify you.

Anything that identifies the scorer (as opposed to others at the table) is all that is needed. Even a striped towel hanging over the front of the table works.
