why don't they just make the same style shoe as the od pos ones....lighter sole and leather material....best looking shoes and lasted....the new ones are all ugly and lucky to last 3 years
-
I know this site hypes ump attire all the time...however some of us love and prefer honigs ....and honigs is having a big sale with huge savings on shirts jackets masks shoes leg guards and other gear

I just got an order from terry this afternoon to Toronto Canada was vest Virginia...8.2 pounds 225 dollar order and shipping was 23.14...if I order on umpire shirt from the official supplier for baseball Canada and softball Canada...the shirt is 49.95 plus 13%tax and 15 dollars shipping which is 45 miles from my business....overall terry ringer to me by far has been the best retailer and second is dick honig in ann arbor....I wish terry was in canada

they all rip u off on shipping to Canada....its not the shipping or the dollar that kills u....its the duty and taxes...80 dollars worth of gear from usa sent to Canada is 46 Canadian in import taxes hst and clearance on top of the shipping.....5 oz team wendy pads shipped to my aunts place in port huron from ump attire was 8.90. I didn't buy them from ump attire...a week later I got 7.8 pounds of umpire stuff from terry ringer official call in west Virginia and shipping was 21.90 American and I got it in three days....from ump attire probably would cost me triple . Also bought a pair of umpire pants from a guy in texas and the shipping was 8.45 to Canada...and ump attire is charging almost 9 bucks to send umpire face mask pads to Michigan for more...from my experience best to deal with for shipping to Canada with good prices is terry ringer from official call by far the best

Chest protector harness suggestions
canadianump replied to Cato the Younger's topic in Umpire Equipment
i bought 2 harnesses from razzer and they are better than my DF. I love the extra 3 inches it gives me over my previous DF. and the fit is perfect. Cant go wrong with razzes harness -
ur joking dan....I tried calling u ....20 times....left messages and got nothing back....don't waste my time anymore with pos ...a lot of retailers out there that give u good service and fight for ur dollars

I have one too....the lightweight version.....I think 23oz....bought it back in 91 from honigs....still have original harness and tan pads....the actual mask is in very good shape...used it from 91 to 95 and it was on hiatus for 14 years before it was used again for one year in 2009. at the time it was the lightest mask on the market. Back in 91 they were selling for 79 and the pos leather lightweight mask was selling for 69

I don't know if its a catcher or whatever harness...I have that on my douglas and love it...have no probs whatsoever with slipping....and I bought it last year and paid 18 bucks and change when they were on sale

25 ounces is very heavy...lightweight mask today is 18-19.5 ounces and super lightweight mask like the champro and diamond are 15.5 to 17.5 ounces. Wilson is behind todays technology..like their heavy chest protectors that fit 5-9 and shorter umps. mind u they are excellent chest protectors but they are heavy at 3.5 pounds for 12 inch cp. but for umpires 5-11ft plus they don't protect ur ribs

honigs sell their mask in silver with team wendy pads for 75

Smitty Charcoal Combo Pant zipper problems
canadianump replied to bayoublue's topic in Umpire Equipment
I have smitty plate base and combo pants for three years and luckily so far I have had no problems whatsoever. Actually im impressed with them so far. Just ordered another pair in gray and navy. Also, there shirts are awesome, best shirts for the money -
I ordered 6 ball bags, 2 harnesses, and heather gray pants Wednesday at noon from Ann Arbor and got them shipped to Sandusky Ohio. My order arrived the following day 4 4opm. Wow, that is why Honigs is the leader in sports officials supplies. And if u talk to anybody in the back they know the answers unlike most retailers

MB u are so poetic...nice to see a fellow blue with such poise and such precise analytical thinking

I bought the pos navy jacket with red stripes three years ago. It fit perfect . I have had no problems whatsoever with my pos jacket. I would recommend it to anyone as long as it is the same one I bought three years ago
-
iagree with rav...a lot of umps love this chest protector..i have never worn a Wilson product..main reason they are small..13 inch chest protector is realistically made for umps up to 5-10..im 6-1 with a long torso and the Wilson does not come close to protecting my ribs..i have the douglas in a 15 inch as my main protector and have a 15 inch champion hard shell and also a 14 inch honigs k 1 with a two inch extension...Wilson needs to make their chest protectors a bit more lighter and definitely have 14-15 inch version...I saw the new schutt 2 chest protector and im thinking about buying it
-
didn't know all star made that cp in 17inches
-
call him up jeff...he does that to me sometimes..he gets swamped with emails...call him at the800 number or if u want I can give u his cell number..he has been very good to me...in the last two years I have bought over $3000 worth of umpire gear for the boys up here in canada
