Who the hell still wears Navy?

Hmm, let me see ............people who live in states that require navy for HS.  Why is this such a difficult concept to grasp? (not directed at you per-say, BT_Blue)

That's taking it to the extremes.

I'd wear blue. Or green. Green would match the rest of my god-awful uniform that's disgusting and unprofessional.

Kid you are up way to early.  get some sleep and be ready for your school day.

Kid you are up way to early. get some sleep and be ready for your school day.It's only 4:26. And the sun's been up for half an hour. I got like, a full two hours of sleep earlier and being a chronic insomniac, I'll take that. And besides that, I only have a week left of school; it doesn't matter. :P

If it makes you feel any better, I'm also working on my math homework.

I wore a navy mask with navy pads as my alternate mask when I first started  with the navy shirts and Powder with navy trim that were the primary HS shirt colors of the day.

 

The navy mask and pads (Gerry Davis two-tone deerskin on face with navy vinyl on the outer side) looked pretty good with those two shirt colors.  I sold the mask with pads.  I have often thought the navy pads would have looked good with my Wilson Ti and with the Diamond Silver I had.  

 

Come to think of it I also had a gray Wilson New View with gray pads.  Those gray pads would have looked good with the silver mask and with a black mask.  Sold that one too.

 

I have often thought a forest green shirt would look good over the gray pants.  Seems like The Official's Choice sold that color once but I never pulled the trigger on that one.

 

Choices........ Have cost me a lot of money over the years.

In Iowa, where we can where what ever we want during the season, but Navy or Lt. Blue for Tournaments I have many combinations that I like to pull out, but these are generally my thoughts about what shirts I will where with what colors.

 

 

MASK: Nike Silver w/ Black Honigs pads and Black Spider SHIRTS: MLB Black, Black, MLB Lt Blue, Lt. Blue w/ Black, Cream, Grey, White, Red, Lt. Blue with Navy, Lt. Blue with Navy & Red, Traditional Navy, Majestic Navy...lets be honest the Nike Ti can go with anything.

 

MASK: Wilson Silver w/ Navy Honigs pads and Navy 4" Wilson TG SHIRTS: Lt. Blue w/ Navy, Lt. Blue w/ Navy & Red, Trad Navy, Majestic Navy

 

MASK: +Pos Zero-G Silver with Lt. Tan +Pos Pads and TG SHIRTS: MLB Black, Black, MLB Lt Blue, Lt. Blue w/ Black, Cream, Grey, White, Red, Lt. Blue with Navy, Lt. Blue with Navy & Red, Traditional Navy, Majestic Navy

 

Mask: Wilson Black w/ Black & Tan Tutone Honigs Pads and Black 6" Wilson TG SHIRTS: MLB Black, Black, MLB Lt Blue, Lt. Blue w/ Black, Cream, Grey, White, Red

 

Others:

Mask: Wilson Silver with Dark Tan +Pos and TG I use it with the same colors as the +Pos with light tan pads.

Mask: +Pos Zero-G Charcoal with Black Pads and TG I use like the black Wilson.

Wow!  Guys more obsessive than me. Lately I have been trying to simplify.  I wanted a backup mask so I got the black New View and refurbed it to make it lighter and thinner with same view as my Ti New View.  One CP and one Shinguard.  All PW charcoal pants.  All black shoes.  Only black ball bags, even with navy (nobody cares in MO or KS on black ball bags with Navy.  Half of the guys wear black hats over navy shirts or navy hats over black shirts. (Drives me crazy).

 

Unfortunately, due to the multiple associations and levels of ball I work I have to wear a lot of differing hats.  I crease the hats and store them flat so I got a New Era 6 cap keeper case and stack up 12 folded hats inside it.  

 

I just painted the inside of my JEAPU (Predecessor to the Force3) gear bag white so I can find stuff with all the black gear inside a black bag in a dark dressing room or back of my SUV.  

 

Did get a Finnerty Supply Bucket going.  Went to Dick's and got an MLB/Rawlings ball bucket with padded lid and filled it with Murphy's and water spray bottle, hairspray bottle, plain water spray bottle, febreeze spray bottle, towels, rags, etc.........

 

I use two suit bags- Black Honig's with my numbers sewn on for college shirts and jackets and another plain black for high school shirts and jackets.

 

What a crazy bunch of people we are.

I got my Navy / Red pads from the movie I been thinking of putting in this older +POS Navy Blue mask. Only problem is it is double bar and really don't want that in playoff ball. I still got a week to decide.....I would buy a Navy Dyna Lite frame if offered
