I agree in how it looks. I was wondering what official ASA has to say about it - I can't find anything other than an undershirt needs to be white with powder, etc.

Umpire jackets are not very warm, so a layering approach makes sense on a cold day. Starts out cold in the morning, so you have a long sleeved tee shirt, your umpire shirt, and your umpire jacket on. As it warms up, you want to remove the jacket. I agree it looks tacky. But is it allowed?

No. All undergarments worn must be covered. If you wear a long sleeve undergarment, you must wear either an ASA jacket or the ASA sweater (if you have one from years ago).

Sounds like you need velcro sleeves on that UA so they can be removed quickly.

Let's not forget those low pants. Your boxers have to be covered as well.

I particularly like the (ahem) chest protector!
