Missouri and Kansas (MSHSAA and KSHSAA) require b/w stripes and black pants. Now, if they'd only outlaw pants with belt loops and belts.

Monetary cost aside, I'm actually a fan of the shirts.

Same for Dallas. Varsity only, with the exception if you work a JV/V doubleheader you wear the grey for both.

I've just seen the photos. So, I'll reserve judgement on that aspect......

I've seen it in person which helped convince it that it wasn't that bad.

Just be glad you don't do football. You'd be stuck with a collar to compound the ugliness...

I like the collared look for football. The old school collared look in hoops is hilarious though.

Maybe I'll do a collar with belted, faded black dockers and white socks for church hoops league sometime. That'd be a hoot.

JUCO level stopped using the greys, not sure what is still the appeal anymore, but to be different. I never felt they looked that good in the first place.

We cannot wear them here and I am happy about that fact.

Peace
