Great fit. Holds color well and easy to adjust.
Joe F. Queens, NY |
Got these for my mate Tom in NZ. Perfect with the expander waistband.
Danny G. Corpus Christi, TX |
Simply a good comfortable pant to wear all day on the field.
Dustin B. Kennewick, WA |
Works great. This is my second pair. The band broke on the first pair, but I love them.
Manuel M. Bruce, MS |
Excellent product.
Jeremy G. Bismarck, ND |
Great fit, love the stretch in these pants, very comfortable!
Edward T. Lago Vista, TX |
Very comfortable and stylish. Love the expandable waistband. Make sure your tailor measures them when hemming. I told mine to put the inseam at 32". Because of the low crotch, they drug the ground my first game. I had to get them re-hemmed.
Rand C. Norfolk, MA |
Good quality, stands up well to frequent use and many times in the washer and dryer. Good looking and comfortable, and I'll never get another pair of umpire pants without the expandable waistband.
William H. Cochran, GA |
First-year umpire here. These pants give a great, comfortable fit and the expandable waistband is perfect for people like me needing in between sizes.
Chuck W. Rogers, AR |
As officials, it is part of our job to not only know the rules of the game but to look and act professional, no matter the level of your game. The pants fit and look great; add the MLB shirt and we are the complete package. Thanks Ump Attire, you complete me. Could I interest you in dinner and a movie?

Yes, Chuck, you can!
Richard D. Eastchester, NY |
Just got these umpire pants measured for the upcoming baseball season. I always love doing business with you at Ump-Attire.
Josh L. Woodinville, WA |
Super comfortable umpire pants. Nothing bad to say about the quality and comfort of the pants thus far. The only drawback is the inseam being insanely long. I guess that's for 1 size fits all but being 5ft 10", my wife had to hem these to take off about a foot of fabric. This was already noted on the item description so that's not really a major deal, just annoying.
Jason W. Middletown, PA |
Once I found the right size, these were great pants. Very comfortable.
Garry P. Chino Hills, CA |
Sharp looking and comfortable. Great value and material.
Steve K. Warwick, NY |
The pants are comfortable and soft. A nice fit.
Michael F. Georgetown, IL |
Good-looking pants. The fit is true to size. No complaints about this product at all.
Thomas N. Scranton, PA |
Awesome fit and value!
Greg H. Abbeville, SC |
Good quality pants, very comfortable.
Eric Arkansas |
A little long, but good quality pants.
Antonio F. Dolton, IL |
Great fit and just what I needed.
Ryan D. North Easton, MA |
Loves these.
Dale H. Mogadore, OH |
Great umpire pants.
John M. MIami, FL |
It's these or my poly/wools. I love these older, charcoal designed ones, since they are more breathable, than the updated ones with spandex. I call those scuba pants, since they don't breathe as well as these.
Justin L. McDonough, GA |
Absolutely love these umpire pants. I did get them altered due to the length, but other than that they were perfect!
Bryan C. Walbridge, OH |
Perfect fit and very comfortable. Hemmed the legs for a perfect and length.
Dominik U. Kimberly, ID |
Well-made and comfortable umpire pants. Had to have them tailored for proper length.
Rob L. Ashland, OH |
Very comfortable and durable for umpiring my baseball games.
Joe R. Brick, NJ |
For the price, you can't beat these umpire pants. I have the Smitty Poly-Spandex version, a couple pairs of Gerry Davis, but I keep coming back to these. The only down side is if you work a lot, the color will fade. The price is right. I would buy two pairs, and alternate between them. They will look great for a long time. Great choice if you're just starting out.
Marvic G. Providence, RI |
These umpire pants are great. Fits well when suited up and very easy to move around it while working the bases too.
Chuck S. Hopkinsville |
I have to admit, I have been skeptical about these "amazing" pants. Not anymore!!! These are such comfortable, light, easy to move in, easy to stay looking sharp pants. Wish I had made the jump earlier, but won't make the mistake again. Great product, great Ump-Attire.com service!
Gregory S. Pennsylvania |
Best umpire pants out there.
Mike V. Lacey |
Great fit and comfort. Can't believe how quickly they got to me. 5 stars all the way around.
Mark M. Texas |
Very nice pants. Love the expandable waist and the professional look. I have bought three pairs of these pants.
Danny V. CA |
Excellent pants, I will only buy these. They have always fit well and comfortable.
Michael D. PA |
These umpire pants are a little heavier than I thought they would be but the quality and feel are top-notch.
Mark R. NC |
Perfect sizing! Excellent quality!
Josh S. Laverne, OK |
Great product! These are my favorite umpire pants to date.
Guillermo M. Buenos Aires |
The pants are excellent and very comfortable, as well as being very resistant. It is lightweight and of very good quality and hard fabric, it is very comfortable for home and base, it is not necessary to have the basic pants or the plate pants if you have the base and plate combo pants.
Bradley M. Perryville, MD |
I have 4 pairs. All have held up very well. I use base pants for bases and combo pants for the plate. I don't like the super baggy wide leg look of the plate pants but that's just my opinion.
Joel S. Midland, MI |
This is the first pair of Smitty brand pants that I've tried and I will definitely purchase again. Cheaper than other options available but comparable quality!
Todd H. West Chester, PA |
Quality is top notch...these umpire combo pants seem more of a plate pants fit so order a size or even two down if you like a more trim look.
Cesar C. Los Angeles, CA |
They cost less than my last pair and look and feel better. So good I had to order a second pair.
Ernie V. San Diego , CA |
My new SMITTY combo pants are just great! Excellent material that washes clean and comes out of the dryer ready to put on and go umpire a game or two. A great product and an excellent value. Thank you for making great umpire pants and shirts!
Stephen T. , Massachusetts |
Being a new umpire I chose the combo umpire pants to try to keep my cost down. The Smitty Combo Pants with expandable waist fit well and being between sizes do the job well.
Mervin W. Lancaster, CA |
I like the Smitty umpire pants because of the expander waist band and the pants don't fade as quick as other brands do and they look new through the entire season into the next season.
David B. Montgomery, Al |
Fantastic cloth. The expandable waistband keeps me comfortable behind the plate all day. Wash and dry, no ironing needed. Very impressed with Ump-Attire.com's customer service. I sent an email regarding my order and received a response within 5 minutes! Ump-Attire.com will be my only vendor for all my Umpire needs.
Joseph L. Halethorpe, MD |
Love these umpire pants. Deep gray color looks sharp/professional. Definitely recommend!!
Christie R. Rockwall, TX |
My husband has umpired for a decade and these pants are his favorite. The only downside is he does always have to get them hemmed to the proper length. I would still recommend these for plate or field!!
Paul K. Detroit, MI |
Awesome product. Perfect fit. Awesome website.
Farrell W. Altoona, AL |
Great umpire pants. Very comfortable.
Anthony L. Easton, Pa |
Very comfortable. They come with what seems like 3 feet of extra fabric, so a seamstress is a must. Lightweight and they do not get "stuck" in my gear. The zipper keeps falling down on my pair. To be honest, they seem more like plate pants with the way they are cut as opposed to being combo. That's fine for me so I have plenty of room for my shins.
Carl S. Royalton, MN |
Best umpire pants I have. The last pair I used for 5 years all spring and summer only replaced them because the color faded too much after 5 year's.
Keith P. Northwest Arkansas |
These umpire pants are awesome, super comfortable. Would highly recommend.
Wayne L. RENO, NV |
Nothing but great complements on these umpire pants...
Mike B. Madisonville, KY |
Absolutely love the way these umpire pants fit. They wear great. The expandable waist line feels great whether I am standing, running or down in the slot. Another pair coming soon.
Robert S. Cibolo, TX |
If you're between 40 or 42 on waist, select 40. Truly expandable waistband. Lightweight material for hotter weather. Get Poly-Wool for cooler weather.
Daniel H. Minneola, FL |
The Smitty combo umpire pants are the best out there, I would recommend them to everyone!
Mike L. New York City, NY |
Great pants, the stretch waist band makes them very comfortable. They look great.
Michael O. Philadelphia, PA |
These combo umpire pants are at least $10 cheaper than anywhere else. Add to this that delivery is always fast and reliable and how can you go wrong? Comfortable and they fit well.
John H. Hoisington, KS |
Size seems accurate. Ordered online because there is no longer a local shop with these pants. Definitely a must have for any umpire who doesn't want separate plate and field pants.
Steve M. Beckley, WV |
Good comfortable pair of pants. Really like the 2" extra give. Easy transaction and shipping was fast.
Nathan K. College Grove, TN |
These Smitty pants are great! They hold a crease very well and are very comfortable!
John M. Tucson, AZ |
Disappointed in my most recent pairs of pants. One pair had a zipper bust the other had a fastener on the waist bust. Very comfortable pants, but quality seems to be going down.
Paul M. Oak Lawn, IL |
Pants fit perfectly and shipped quickly. This is my second pair and definitely will be buying more. Great umpire pants and service.
Mark M. Lewisville, TX |
Bought two pair for the upcoming season and am very pleased with the fit and quality. Would definitely recommend them.
Robert W. Yates City, IL |
Good fit and good price. Easy to clean in regular machine. They will work for you all season. I buy two new pair at first of year and one more just before summer games start.
Brian J. Oak Hill, VA |
These are decent pants for the price. However, they do fade after just a few washings. Also, the stretch fit waistband is kind of a pain to deal with. If you want pants that don't fade go with Gerry Davis. If you want pants that have a working adjustable waistband then go with Honigs.
Paul L. Biloxi, MISSISSIPPI |
Bought my first pair a few weeks ago to try them out. Very comfortable pants, allows for movement and for long hours of doing games. Liked them so much that I bought a second pair. While you may spend more money for these, in my opinion they are certainly well worth the price because of the comfort and reliability. I should have bought these a long time ago had I known about this website much sooner. Glad that I was told about this site. Thank you.
Mike O. Manteca, CA |
First pair of umpire pants I bought and I like them. Buying the combo pants turned out to be a good buy. I went one size up for the loose fit feel around the butt area. Can't go wrong buying these pants.
Justin M. Columbus, OH |
Spend the extra $15 and get the Honig's pants that don't fade and are actually charcoal grey. They say they're dry clean only, but you can get away with machine washing "delicate" in cold water and immediately hang drying.
Tim W. Englewood, CO |
These pants get the job done for a good price. I have had these pants rip while making a call at second base. They also seem to fade quickly.
Ronald B. Elkton, MD |
Nice pant. Fits well and very comfortable in the heat of August. You will need a base layer for early spring games. The only complaint I have is that they fade quickly. If color matters, one season is all you may get out of them.
Dick P. Grand Junction, CO |
These are very comfortable pants. The expandable waistline band is especially helpful, give the propensity some of us have to gain/lose weight! The waistband is always snug, but not choking. I highly recommend the combo as it eliminates the need for 2 pairs of slacks.
Rob S. Ludlow, KY |
Great pants, hold up well after many washings. As always, very fast shipping.
Michael Taylor Salisbury.Md |
I have been using Smitty pants for the last several years. The only knock I have ever heard is they don't match Davis pants. That is exactly why I bought them. Davis pants are the ugliest thing I have in baseball pants since the POS green pants years ago
David Allentown, PA |
Good fit, good price but fades from sunlight way to quickly. In one season went from charcoal grey to heather grey from fading
Brad Thede |
Very good pants for working a lot of games. Machine wash. My only complaint I had was the placement and number of belt loops. I had my tailor sow an extra belt loop in the back.
RJT Lexington, Virginia |
GOOD PAIR OF PANTS AND A BETTER PRICE! PLUS THEY'RE IN STOCK UNLIKE GERRY DAVIS CHARCOAL PANTS!!!!!!!!!!!
Bill McCracken Ruckersville, VA |
I wore the Smitty Charcoal Grey Combo Umpire pants the entire 2010 season for high school and youth league. So far, they have held up well. Overall, good choice for price and quality. The expandable waist is a big plus when layering up for cold weather.
Alan Coggins Lawrenceville, Georgia |
The pants fit great. Very comfortable and great looking. I have worn them one season. The only negative is they faded after one season. I would buy again for the comfort and the flex-fit waistband.
