Description

The MU460v3 New Balance Umpire Mid-Cut Plate Shoes are designed for that extra look of authority with its high gloss finish that is easy to clean while maintaining the comfort, breathability and traction you expect in an on-field athletic shoe.

The redesigned floating instep guard provides advanced features. First, it provides maximum protection where you need it most, on the inside of your feet, without the extra bulk on the outside where you don't. Second, it "releases" from the top making it easier to take on and off and to lace your shoelaces. Third, there is a mesh strap that creates space between your shoe and guard for air to flow.

This mid-cut style is black with white "N" on both sides, New Balance top plate on the tongue and sole.

FEATURES

  • Strategically placed mesh strap on inside of metatarsal guard that promotes air flow and breathability
  • Toe box is designed of the highest grade Thermal Polyurethane possible, with greater density in high impact zones
  • ABZORB® - a blend of Dupont™ Engage® and Isoprene rubber - in heel and forefoot provides superior shock absorption and cushioning throughout the game
  • Guard releases for easy on / off
  • High gloss is easy to clean / polishable
  • Mid-cut provides greater ankle support
  • Snug-fit integrated neoprene sock liner provides additional comfort between foot and hard toe
  • Nubby outsole for enhanced traction
  • Lace pocket on tongue to hide shoelaces
  • Weight: Up to 31.3 ounces per shoe
  • The official plate shoes for MLB umpires
  • For baseball or softball

Excellent, sharp, comfortable shoe. Sizing is spot on.

Solid shoes. Have taken direct shots and barely felt a thing. Mids definitely feel lighter than highs. I've owned two pairs of highs and one pair of mids over 6 years and close to a thousand games. They are great plate shoes on grass and turf but the south Texas turf is brutal on any shoe. The entire shoe has held up extremely well and still holds a great shine but eventually the soles start to separate at the toes. Some shoe repair shops will repair for $40-65 but inevitably they will separate again. Haven't found a good way to reattach them myself.

Love these shoes! I'm OCD about nice shoes that I own (dress shoes, etc.) so after games I'll wipe these off w/ a microfiber cloth and clean them up. Then use cedar shoe trees (helps eliminate odors and keeps the true form of the shoe) which keeps them looking new! Then black shoe polish as needed. These are super comfortable shoes- even after plating 3 games in a row!

Questions About This Product

Q: The last pair of shoes I bought, my toes really hurt after one game. They’re normal size that I wear. Should I get a wider shoe?
– Donald Villarreal
A: 

We suggest determining where you're feeling the rub. Do your feet have enough room lengthwise? Or are they feeling squeezed at the sides? Because of these factors to be determined, we are happy to offer Free Returns if you would like to order multiple pairs in various sizes to try on in your home, not on the field, and find out which size & width combination is best for you.
