Those are the only brand of pants I've ever worn for umpiring. I would go with the 38. Just a little too big can be solved with a belt, too small well......

The 38 waist fits me just fine, and looks sharp (well, as sharp as umpire's pants can look). The 40" waist just doesn't look right on me, though. Looks a little too loose, and my protective equipment for "the boys" moves around a little too much.

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!

I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.

This doesn't sound like a pant issue to me!

Maybe it could be attributable to the fact that I don't have a big a$$. The compression shorts don't hold the bottom of the cup tightly enough.

Just a bit of a gut. Hurray, beer!

Fechheimers are wonderful, especially for my tight butt.

It's just covered by my fat @$$.

would much rather have Fechheimers than the pink/gray with the white pockets -- unless I am doing VERY REC SP, when I pull out the old pinkish grays because I am too tight to trash 'em.

Give 'em a little time (OK, in Seattle - a LOT of time)... even the Fech's fade badly.

As an aside, that is why the ASA's insisting on Fech's from ASA for nationals in order to get uniform color won't work. But, maybe they will be satsified with uniform style (western cut, no pleats, etc.).

I wouldn't say they're insisting... They're requiring. If I remember right, the letter I got said it had to be bought straight from them. Don't know how they'll enforce that...
