I wore the 3n2 mid-tops last season and they held up just fine. I have a wide foot and the shoes were comfortable and offered great support.

Michael, are the ones pictured the mid tops? They look more like low tops. I don't see any that are advertised as mid tops. Dave

This model is not a mid-top. I did see this shoe last fall at the ASA National Council meeting, and it looks like a good shoe (although a bit less sporty, perhaps, than some).

ASA's officialgear.com is selling this shoe for $59 + shipping, so the introductory price quoted by Larry at Legends ($40 + shipping) is excellent. I have purchased from him several times, and he does a good job with servicing his customers. If you notice his site, he doesn't carry a lot of items; just ones he personally believes in. He is one of us; an active umpire (I have had the pleasure to work tournaments with him), also active on this board. I don't think you can go wrong with the combination of this price and dealing with Larry.

Thanks for the heads up on his site, Steve. I've made sure to put it in my "Umpire Gear" bookmarks!

I haven't decided if I should call it from the dugout or the outfield. Apparently, both have really great views!

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!

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

That is either one ugly shoe or they need to fire their marketing photographer.

Maybe they got their designer from Pontiac. You know, the one who designed the Aztek?
