I use the west vest gold, shin guards and mask with traditional black padding...id rather sweat and sacrifice a little bulk than sacrifice games from an injury.

UnderArmor has a new mask out on the market. It is made by All Star.
The new Diamond mask is now powder coated rather than the old rubber coating that would chip. 3n2 makes an outstanding shoe, both plate and base. I own Legends Athletic Supply and do not promote my site here, but do umpire and sometimes participate. I know many of you. If you have any questions about equipment, whether you purchase from me or not, please call. 214-444-8679 Larry |
[QUOTE=CecilOne;723874]Do you have or know about this mask
Legends Athletic Supply: DIAMOND LIGHTWEIGHT UMP MASK I have the older all black one and it has been a great mask. The mask is very comforatble, dissipates sweat quickly and will take a straight on shot with little discomfort to you. or would you prefer these Legends Athletic Supply: New Balance Umpire Plate Shoe MU 450 and how do YOU get rid of the white N? I have the 450's also and they are very comfortable. I have not tried the other shoe, but would definately recomment the 450. I used a liquid dye on the N and it worked out pretty good. |
I was pretty sure of getting good help this way and you all just confirmed that. Thanks much. :D :cool:
I'll probably order the Diamond mask, not sure about the shoes yet. I now have Riddell, just fine, and Reebok base shoes had always been good for me, now wearing NB. |
I am also seeing this Diamond mask which is only $29.99.
Diamond Lite Face Mask (DFM-43) - Protective Gear Anyone know why it is so cheap? Is it less protective, less durable, .... ? Specifically comparef to the one I originally asked about http://legendsathleticsupply.com/sto..._UMP_MASK.html |
just letting you know there's a new model option in the mid-cut plate shoes for those 3N2's. but as price goes, you can get them for $85 from epic sports online.
also I've worn the mid-cut spot-bilts, and I am now wearing the new balance 450. blacked out the N's on the 450's, but decided to get the 3N2 reaction mids instead, since I want to shed the weight. the NB450's aren't light enuff for me, but neither were the spot-bilts. I prefer mid-cut plate shoes, so these are perfect. I'm waiting on the 3N2 reaction mid plate shoes to be shipped to me. if you want the lightest mask, go with the magnesium mask, the champro CM58. only $65 @ epic sports if you buy 10 or more. :D http://baseball.epicsports.com/prod/...ml?trk=7221875 Quote:
