New Balance V3 Black & White Mid-Cut Umpire Plate Shoes

Good shoes. But they are so much heavier than the Reebok Zig Magistrates I wore out. They do clean up very easily and offer a lot of protection. Would have been 5 stars had they not felt as heavy as bricks.

UMPLIFE XL Magnetic “Book” Style 6.5” Umpire Lineup Card Holder

This lineup card holder is great. It is longer and wider than a standard holder so the lineups will not overhang the edges. Magnets hold well with enough give to store a pen in the hinge.

Team Wendy Umpire Mask Replacement Pads - Tan

I have tan pads that replaced the stock pads in my silver Diamond ix3 frame. The first time I wore them, I took a foul ball directly to the center of the mask (there are red marks from the stitching where the ball hit). The crowd and the base coaches reacted, but I did not feel the impact. I gave a thumbs up, put the ball back in play, and called the next pitch. I am also impressed with how comfortable they are - they do not slide around and no need to shave before games. I have not noticed them getting any more dirty/grungy than the tan leather pads I have - and, I can wash them!
