I am wearing adidas a3 microride leather. I love them, but found out they aren't making them anymore.

This is the same shoe I am using. I love them. I found out early in the summer the shoes were being discontinued during the summer, so I bought another pair. This is one of the lightest and most comfortable shoes I have ever refereed in.

I went with the Pentagon Sports Court Shoes from Honigs. I like em, and I think they are pretty sweet lookin.

I personally like the Kiwi Leather Cuir, "Premiere Shine Ultra-Brillant." I have some shoes that have a little white or gray on them so I will use the neutral color for those shoes. This seems to work the best for me. I guess I will have to reference what everyone does across the country or what the NF had requires. Sorry if that is a personal preference and I do not consider what everyone does across the country. 😀

I am using the New Balance 888. This is a really nice comfortable shoe.

I have used Leather Luster in the past. Takes a while to apply the first time, but then you're done.

THis year, I tried Shape-Up (or maybe it's Shine Up?). Easier to apply than LL, but doesn't seem to be holding up as well. The jury is still out.

Go to Nike.com and design your own, you can even get them monogrammed. That is what I did, when someone swiped my brand new kicks last year from the locker room

Is this shoe leather on the outside? It looks like its suade or something similar. Are you able to shine it up? It's a good price online so I was thinking of getting them but they only have Mustang Brown/Gold and a grey one.

That is the exact shoe style but it is not the exact shoe. The shoe I have was a Finish Line exclusive that I own and it is all leather.

I wear New Balance mainly because I have a wide foot and it is the only shoe I can get in my actual size (11). I order them in 4E width. Also, the NB store by me gave $10 off for officials.

Splute - Nike Shox ID, patent leather. Look great, comfortable, but they make my feet very warm... maybe the patent not letting air in?? Otherwise I like them.

i've looked at (i thought) every option in the nike id program, but have never been able to get a pair 'all black' that i like. what model shoe did you order?

Nike Shox R4, Very comfortable.

I've worn NB for the past few years, but they stopped making what I used to wear. So I am trying a pair of their new 888's. I hated them the first night out. I get the 4E witdth, and that usually fits quite nicely. But these are a little roomier than I'm used to. And they don't seem to have quite the cushioning that previous models have had.

So...

Bought a pair of Spenco inserts, put them under the liner that came with the shoes (which solved a problem with a slight gap between the insert and the side of the shoe), and now I love 'em. Haven't even had to polish them yet because they're shinier than previous models.

It is actually a synthetic leather and is harder to shine than traditional leather, but like Jeff said, it is a great shoe. I have another pair still in the box, but will have to find a new style to wear.

Most shoes nowadays are synthetic and that is not a major issue. And if you use many shining techniques, you can still have a great shine.

Problem with official's shirt: How do you keep your shirt tucked in properly if you are wearing a compression shirt underneath ... any ideas?

Am I missing something here?

I use the military garders (spelling??), They attach to the shirt and then loop around your feet. You can adjust them to keep your shirt nice and tight.

Am using a NB 858. it is a cross between a running shoe and and a cross trainor. it is not an all leather shoe, but it is the most comfortable NB or any other shoe that I have wever worn.

Mine just stays tucked in.

Some use the "flex belt." Most "sansabelt" type pants have a rubber insert on the waistband.

If your shirt and pants fit properly, it won't come out from normal officiating activities.
