I have 2 Smitty Black MLB shirts with gray panel for sale. Both are size Medium. Both are well taken care of. If you want to see photos, send me a message. I'll ship them both to you for $25

Want to buy: Pro Style Carolina blue shirt (see pic) Short sleeve Size L Would prefer Majestic brand, but will consider others (Smitty). Cannot believe that I can't find these anywhere, though I have seen a couple of "sketchy" online providers, they don't tell you the brand name, and then want 50% of the shirt cost as shipping cost. Thanks!

Emptying out a few items from the closet. All excellent condition - in fact that's why I'm getting rid of them, because I haven't used them much. 1/2 zip medium Smitty black w/ white stripes plate jacket. Open bottom (no elastic) and long for tucking. Ideal for bad-weather plate jobs. Medium Smitty black long-sleeve shirt. Small Honig's light blue w/ black collar short sleeve shirt. $50 gets you the lot shipped. Otherwise, it's $25 for the jacket, $15 for the long sleeve, $12 for the short-sleeve. I'll give it til Friday, then it's off to Ebay if no one needs them in here. Color from the photos might be off a bit, each item is like new.

In the time since the Elbeco, there have been several varieties of umpire shirts making their ways into The Show, and then trickling down to the other junior leagues. Until 2010, shirts all featured a twin stripe of trim – colors coordinating with the main base color – on the sleeve cuff and the collar. This has been referred to as "Traditional" or "Classic": I have been unable to determine if Majestic took over and became the official supplier of MLB beginning with 2010, or they trotted out the new style, but it was indeed 2010 that the new "Vertical Stripe" debuted: This has been known as the MLB Black / MLB Sky (or MLB Powder or MLB Blue), or Modern Black, or Vertical Stripe... I think this should be thus be named "The '10 Black" (the Ten) and "The '10 Sky". In 2015, Majestic developed a new technical fabric, a smooth lightweight textile that was a departure from the jersey-esque pebble knit. Unable to wait, or let another company beat them to the punch, Majestic rolled it out as a "technical exercise" in an all-black, unadorned shirt for the Major Leagues and they (unfortunately) revisited the Classic navy (thus, setting back the progressive, modern umpire's campaign to end navy by several years). It looks like this: This should be designated "The '15 Black" (the Fifteen). Only a few crews ever used this shirt, and it was not introduced in a Sky blue version. One can only deduce that Majestic rolled out this shirt in Classic Navy so as to appeal and capture sales to some state high school associations which would otherwise be using the same ol' Dalco, Cliff Keen, Smitty or Bumblebrand (made up name) of arcane material shirts. With a full year of the new fabric with which to plan a new style, Majestic's designers debuted a comprehensive attire system, with a new ThermaBase jacket, a new CoolBase jacket, and 2 new shirts, complete with a contrasting panel on the flank and at the collar. It was issued in Black (and charcoal) and Sky Blue (and black). I have dubbed this, appropriately, "The '16 Black" (the Sixteen... of course, there is the Sixteen Sky). Thus far, only Smitty has produced a rendition of the '16, but I am hopeful that other manufacturers will soon (TheOfficialsChoice). Now, with UnderArmour soon to take over the Official Supplier mantel, we may see a continuance of this style, or something decidedly different. The simple fact of the matter is, the Major Leagues and modern umpiring is leaving the "Classic" styles in the dust.

Got an email this morning and this was there.

I searched the forum, but couldn't find an answer specifically. My association doesn't have any patch requirements on uniform shirts; however, I don't like plain shirts, so I put American flag patches on the left sleeve of my shirts. I want to purchase a long sleeve shirt, but I'm not sure where to put the flag patch. Is it still standard to affix the flag to the left sleeve, or would centered on the back be more appropriate?

Good evening all! I am looking to off load some shirts that I am no longer using since staring up in an area doing primarily softball, i have: 3 (three) Cliff Keen Umpire Polo shirts in Red, Creme, and Gray all size 3XL looking for $15 each or $40 for all three. 1 (one) Cliff Keen Umpire jacket (Navy/Scarlett) microfiber in 2XL looking for $45 A note on everything, The shirts were given to me as a gift when i started umpiring, and have only been worn one or two times at most, but have been taking up space in my closet since getting married and subsiquently moving around (due to school and apt stuff) , and in at least the forseeable future will not see much use as they are not colors commonly used in ASA softball (which is predominantly what i do around here). The jacket was actually bought in my younger days thinking it would work for HS softball/ASA (our state association at the time did not allow stripes and ASA did but they have to be powder blue w/ white) and didnt think much about it until i was told otherwise. Likewise, the jacket has seen a few babe ruth and legion games in my final days of travelling home prior to getting married but for the most part has sat in my closet since then. SO, Everything here is looking for a good home! iIf interested shoot me a message, and feel free to ask for better pictures if these dont work. MT
