Hi everyone.  i've been studing hard..!

 

so i got a smokin' deal on some equipment, and am now looking for the outer wear.

 

pants in Charcoal, my waist size is 36-38" and inseam could be 32"

 

Shirts in XL, black is perfered, but dark blue is ok.

 

shoes: size 11 (plate)

 

(since i'm just starting out, i found some equpiment on craigslist.  for $40 bucks, i got a (all ITECH) CP, Shin Guards, Mask, 2 indicators, plate brush, and an 6 rib hat.  yes i know its not the best equipment... but after i get going i'll purchase better equipment by either an equipment package, or piece it out.) 

 

as for socks, i was a soccer referee, and was thinking of wearing those under my shin guards.   What do you think? 

 

Thanks in Advance,

Ron-

I have yet to find someone that has used them. I would like to get a pair of these but don't want to give someone money that I have no info about.

Not sure what RBKs we are talking about, but I have used the Mid Plate Magistrates and just bought the Zig Plates. Loved my Magistrates, but they are out dated. I will still wear for lower level games and rainy days. My new zigs are unbelievably comfortable. Tried on the NB 450 for comparison... BLAH! RBK all the way baby!

Was refering more towards Officials Supply then the shoes. I will be buying Reebok plate shoes. Just a question of them being either the Magistrates or the Zigtech

Yes. But I have found that I can fit a size 12 in Reeboks (base shoes) and they fit me pretty well. What I am worried about is that I am looking for plate shoes. And there is less "give" in them then in base shoes.
