Black slacks...
« on: May 18, 2012, 05:31:46 PM »
This topic is probably  deadhorse:..but I have finally decided to  ^flag knickers and go to black slacks in light of the fact that TASO is going to them next year.

I ended up buying a pair of foul weather slacks from a local sporting goods store and bought a pair of Honig's standard slacks.

I already tried the foul weather slacks and they seem to be a LOT more comfortable than the knickers. I don't know about the Honig's slacks though, they are off at a dry cleaners getting hemmed.

I think this is a change I am going to get used to :thumbup

Totally agree with the black socks recommendation with the black pants.

If you haven't yet, wash your Honig's pants soon and check to see if the white stripe got dyed a grey / brown color. This happened to several people including myself.

...in addition to a pair of Nike's and a pair of addidas. Nothing like dressing alike.

Do you normally have your HS crews match shoes?

Now I will have to admit that my back judge does, in fact, wear black socks; but if that were actually him in that photo, I too, would have taken the liberty to edit his face out, as there are just some things in life that should definitely not be seen by women and children!   z^

We sure do.

In what I believe the game you are referring to, the crew had a fill in due to a crew member who missed a great deal of the season because of health issues. The fill in member is on another crew, and the alternate, who worked late in the game because of a minor injury, is also on another crew.

Just FYI.

What do I do if they are? It would be too late to return them at this point. Will Honig's replace them for free?

To me footwear is kind of personal. What is comfortable on me may not be comfortable on a crew mate.

That said we all have agreed on a single shoe and are buying that.
