Umpire's Gear
Everything the men and women behind the plate need - protective plate gear, shirts, pants, shoes and accessories to work the game in comfort. Calling the corners? Some of our catcher's masks crossover for the plate as well.
Baseball Town carries the official Baseball Québec umpire uniform, including the official umpire shirt, T-shirt, cap, jacket and convertible jacket. Find them in our umpire shirts, umpire caps and umpire jackets, online or in store in Laval, Saint-Hubert and Ottawa.
Plate pants are cut wider through the leg so they fit over umpire leg guards. Base pants are slimmer, for umpires working the bases without guards. Combo pants, like the Louisville Slugger Umpire Pants Combo Plate/Base, offer a fit that works for both, a smart choice for new umpires. Shop all umpire pants.
Plate umpires should wear plate shoes, like the New Balance MU460 Umpire Plate Shoe or Mizuno Pro Wave Umpire Shoes, which have reinforced toe and instep protection against foul balls. Base umpires usually wear field shoes, like the New Balance MU950, for comfort and grip. See all umpire shoes.
Most umpires use a traditional mask, like the Wilson Dyna-Lite or All Star Superlight, which is light and easy to remove on plays at the plate. Some prefer a hockey-style helmet, like the Wilson Pro Stock Umpire Helmet, for full head protection. Masks come in steel, aluminum and titanium, with lighter metals reducing fatigue over a full game. Add a throat protector, like the Wilson Neck & Throat Protector, for foul tips to the neck.
Umpire chest protectors are worn under the shirt and are designed to absorb foul tips while staying low-profile. Hard-shell models, like the All Star Pro Internal Shell, spread the impact over a rigid plate, while soft models are lighter and more flexible. Popular choices include the Wilson Pro Gold 2 and Pro Platinum, Rawlings UCPPRO and All Star System 7. Shop all umpire protective equipment.
Umpire leg guards are sized by length, measured from the middle of the knee to the top of the foot, like the All Star Standard Umpire’s Leg Guards 17". They should cover the knee and the top of the shoe without limiting your movement in your stance. Replacement straps, like the All Star DeltaFlex S7X straps, extend the life of your guards.
