Has anyone purchased from Purchase Officials? How did it go?

Yes, multiple times, both for stuff I bought for myself or needed for my state association. Competitive prices and always shipped/delivered quickly. They have a decent rewards program as well and it can help save a few bucks on shipping costs or the item itself.  Can only say positive things about Ump-Attire but Purchase is very good, too.

Echo everything else here. I live about 20 mins from them and have ordered (lol) and done walk ins. They are very nice and helpful. Returns are easy and a great policy, the points system is awesome, and they have a good selection of stuff. They're my go-to just because they're so close to me. They also do custom embriodery and flag/number sewing in addition to hemming if you're into that.

The only thing I wish is that they carried Ump Life products...

Solid 4.75/5 from me.

On Wednesday March 1 I placed an order for a state specific item that I saw only on their site. Without paying for expedited shipping, it was delivered before 6PM on Saturday March 4 and was exactly what I wanted.

They are good and ship fast and carry the standard stuff pretty much everyone else does (except things like the Ump Life products.)

I do find PO's prices to be a bit higher.  Was interesting to note on their website they appear to have taken over as the MiLB supplier from UA.

Pretty sure they do a lot of the MLB stuff too. I was in there last year and remember seeing the Memorial Day Camo hats, and was in there about a week and a half ago now and they were in the process of putting numbers on the therma jackets. At the very least they attach all extra patches and numbers.

Interesting.  Some might remember before Honig's went downhill and eventually sold they used to do this too.  They posted pics a long time ago of them assembling the MLB boxes for each umpire of shirts, jackets, caps, etc.  They would also get like the blank plate coats and put on the numbers and MLB patches from Hardwick.

Interesting too because UA came out recently and mentioned how they were contacted to field test the Smitty poly spandex pants with a few MLB crews.

Good stuff.  Thanks.

Excellent! I use them for all of my college association's uniforms plus HS softball where softball's old fashioned colors and styles are hard to find sometimes.  You accumulate ref points for purchases and you get some pretty good money off coupons with the points for future purchases.  Them and Ump Attire are the only ones I use.

As others have said, they were excellent. I actually visited the store and can confirm they were doing what appeared to be doing either MLB or MiLB jackets with numbers etc. They were all on a rack behind the counter.
Also got a quick peek into their warehouse/shipping area. Very large and seemed like a large volume of inventory!
That being said, the personal treatment I got to get the best chest protector setup and fit was great.
Highly Recommend
