New Balance V3 MLB All-Black Low-Cut Umpire Plate Shoes

I really like these plate shoes. Very comfortable and offer a lot of protection behind the plate. The only reason they aren't 5 stars is that they run a little bit bigger than advertised.

Great plate shoe. Very Comfortable. Fits nice and snug.

Really like these plate shoes. Lightweight and comfortable. Plenty of protection with my F3 shin guards.

I really like these plate shoes. I like that these are low-cut and has the extra protection on the inside of the feet.

I have had a lot of plate shoes over the years and these are the most comfortable ones that I have ever owned. If you don't have a pair, I highly recommend you get a pair.

Easily the most comfortable umpire plate shoe I have ever worn. I love the look, too!

Quality appears to be very good. The appearance is excellent. I purchased the wider size and it seems to give me more room in the toe box. We'll see how it stands up to a few foul balls and catchers cleats.

Got my new low cut new balance plate shoes, and they are Great! When I first got them and tried them on I thought that maybe they might be uncomfortable, so I wore them for a couple of games. My initial reaction was quickly changed because after a few games these shoes are light, protective, really hold a shine, and are extremely comfortable. I would highly endorse this product, you will not be sorry!

This is the most comfortable plate shoe on the market. It's lightweight and makes you feel like you have on tennis shoes when you have to move. It also offers the protection you need when getting hit on the foot as well as wide widths for guys with larger feet. Highly recommend the NB V3 plate shoes.

Absolutely love NB shoes and have worn V1, V2, and now V3 of their umpire plates shoes. Never been disappointed in the fit, comfort, protection, and durability. Having some ankle issues, I reluctantly tried this new low cut model of V3 and was blown away by the stability and comfort, and don't feel like there is any sacrifice in protection. I have already ordered a second pair.

Very comfortable. Just did 15 games this past weekend with these umpire plate shoes. The size is spot on and they're easy to clean too.

Very sharp looking shoe as well as comfortable. The low cut for me works well with the shinguards. Hopefully they will last as long as my old New Balance umpire plate shoes.

Way better than V2's. Easy to clean. No polish needed!

With about 50 plate games on these umpire shoes not even a whimper of a complaint. The only thing I changed out were the laces. They were just "WAY TOO LONG" knock 'em down to a 45" length...ALL GOOD.

Great umpire plate shoes! True fit to regular shoe size, very comfortable and great protection!

Easy to clean. Best looking plate shoe. Professional. I had the previous design and both are size 11, however, I had the mid-cut before. This low-cut seems to run a 1/2 size too big.

Very comfortable and sizing it spot on as well. Completed a tournament in these umpire plate shoes and my feet felt great. Easy clean up as well.

These are one of the most comfortable plate shoes I've worn in a long time. Great cushioning.

Very comfortable, and seems to be a high quality umpire plate shoe that will last. Want to purchase field shoes next.

So far so good. After Reebok exited the umpire shoe market I was concerned about finding another plate shoe I would like. New Balance is now my plate shoe of choice.

Great umpire plate shoe again by New Balance. I've used them a couple of times. Very conformable shoes, look great with the high gloss finish, true to size. You would never go wrong buying this shoe. Love the low cut shoes.

Just bought and received these shoes last week. I've had the same plate shoes for a number of years and finally broke down and ordered new ones. These are SOOO comfortable and light. Excellent shine, easy to clean, and look good.

I've only had a chance to use these plate shoes in a couple of games since receiving them. Have to say, the light weight combined with the sturdiness is pretty impressive so far. Great fit in the EE size, and as comfortable a pair of umpire plate shoes that I've owned. I'm a little concerned about the laces feeding through the loop on the end of the tongue, but I may be dead wrong with my concerns.

I have been wearing the Reebok Field Magistrate low-cut plate shoe for about 10 years and LOVED it, but the soles were almost slick from wear, so I decided to go ahead and purchase a new pair of shoes. Since Reebok is out of the umpire shoe biz, I purchased the New Balance Low cut plate shoe. I am a size 12-D, and the Reebok shoe fit my foot PERFECTLY. The NB fit very well, also. They arrived the day before our state association training scrimmage. I wore my new shoes and was very pleased with the comfort, support, and look of the new shoes. For those of you looking to buy this shoe, for me, they were a little snug at the metatarsal area, but not uncomfortable, and never noticed after I got on the diamond. The heel is a little loose but I plan to add a heel insert. New Balance has allowed me to rest easy about a major concern when it comes to my umpiring equipment and apparel.

These shoes are fantastic! I have extremely wide feet, and have been wearing the old style NB in 12.5 EEEE. These new ones are much lighter, at 26.2 oz each in size 12. My old ones were 32 oz each. Also they are much better ventilated and look much sharper and stay clean better. Also much improved traction. I am extremely pleased with these, and the service I received from Ump-Attire.com. They even 2nd day shipped them to make it in time for my first D3 plate of this season. Highly recommend!
