All-Star Cobalt 6" Umpire Throat Guard

It's a little longer than I expected, though that's my own problem and not the product's. It's taken some getting used to, and I might consider trying a 4-inch to see if that gives me a little more range of motion. The guard itself is exactly as promised, and it's quite well manufactured. Provides perfect protection.

Very well made jacket. Fits just as promised. Perfect for the end of the fall season (and beginning of our spring).

Force3 Defender Umpire Mask

I really like this mask. I was worried it might be a little heavy but I honestly don’t notice it at all. Even working double headers it’s still comfortable at the end of the second game. I feel like this mask offers the best protection out there and highly recommend it.
