See Umpire Chest Protector Padding from Inside

We just finished a recent small project to show you a photo of what each umpire chest protector looks like from the inside. I don't know how much seeing the padding helps in your decision-making process, but we continue to strive to make the online experience of looking at protective gear as close as realistically possible to seeing them in person.

To view, visit the umpire chest protectors section and click on any one to visit its product page where you can click on a thumbnail of its inside padding to view a close-up.

Save Big on Clearance Items, Especially Shoes

We just made our decisions on what stays and what goes as part of our selection for 2010 and decided to put some exceptionally low prices on the "what goes".

We don't expect some of these items to last long at these prices as supplies are already limited. So hurry up and save a little on 12 clearance items including field shoes for all outside sports from New Balance and Pentagon plus select items specific to umpiring including shirts and the Diamond EDGE umpire helmet.

Warehouse Crew Enjoys Recent Photo Shoot

Chad Denton, our new stock manager, and Jonathan Capps, part of the warehouse crew, have been bugging me about allowing them to model some products. The guys have truly been an integral part of our success this spring, so when a need for a quick photo shoot came up for Ultimate Umpire Shirts and some other things, I thought it could be a lot of fun.

I decided to jump in and also have Paul Nelson, our warehouse manager, who's taken many photos before to participate and show the guys the ropes.

The guys admittedly got into it after some initial jitters. Some of the pics are below.
