Wow I just got mine and wanted to ask the same thing. You might want to loosen the top straps a little. I wa thinking about taking the floating knee one myself.

The shirts are fitted for the plate. I'm a XXL guy in everything. I got a xl and it fits great.

Just got a pair of the honig combo adjuster pants in the mail. I thought they would have the elastic stretch band but they have a big metal clip to make the pants bigger. As I laced the pants for the first time today one of the belt loops broke. Got the hemmed from them so no return for me. Time to get so needle and thread and so them up. Other than that I like them.

Found these for $70 and 6 bucks shipping. http://www.vtssports.com/vector/reebok-zig-magistrate-black-black

Should I get the zig magistrates, zig energy matte, or the zig energy patent leather for the bases?

What kind of indicators do you use? I have the one with Balls Strikes and Outs. Had a guy tell me last night I had a crappy one. I remember when these first came out and the one with strikes and balls on top were the crappy ones. When they first came out the strikes were on top. What do the MLB and MiLB guys use? Just asking thanks. Here is what I have now https://www.ump-attire.com/Baseball-Umpire-Equipment/Bags-Tools/Indicators/PI3B_Oversized-Balls-on-Top-Plastic-3-Dial-Umpire-Indicator?id=315

@BalkHawk thanks for posting this. I only have the plates but want the bases.

@Thunderheads I bought it. paypaled the money for it.

@Thunderheads bought this item

Did my first game with the zig plates today. Had the Gerry Davis ones 10yrs ago. Wow they are great. Do the base zigs feel the same or better? If so I want a pair. I'm now wearing nike diamond trainers in the field cause I got them at dicks. My zig plates are more comfortable than the trainers!

I say get it I wish i had one doing pinto yearling and mustang. I would use it.

How much for force 3?

I probably would wear 17. PM if u have some u want to sell. Will pay through paypal.

I wish I had one of those for some 7-10 year old games where the catcher doesn't move and ball just smashes you.

Lol did I say the magic words?

Ok I got all diamond featherweight stuff now. What are the pros and con of the gold and platinum CPs and shins? What are the similarities and differences? I know a lot of guys on here have them or have both. Thanks. I have searched and read other threads already.

yeah i did thanks tucker for your help. Do you wear a hat under your helmet? My head is pretty big 7 3/4 I dont know if I can fit a hat under there.

ok thanks tucker

Tucker where do you attach it and how? Can you send a pic of yours? Just want to make sure I do it right. Im a newbie.

http://findnsave.nj.com/offer/adidas-Phenom-Catchers-Helmet-Large/26545612/ I went into Dicks today and they had a navy blue HSM mask for $39.99. I tried it on and I could see much better than with my traditional Diamond featherweight mask. Anybody have one of these? Any advice? Do I need a throat protector?

I am back at umpiring after being out close to 15 yrs. this site is awesome!

eBay or Craigslist. Might want to sell the equipment and the uniform stuff seperate from each other cause somebody may want the equipment but the uniform won't fit. U can buy that equipment new on eBay for $110 I believe.

@bam ok maybe closer to 15. Have u ever heard of spraying pledge?
