On baseball fashion...

[HudsonHawk]

Since the Astros wore their new duds for the first time on Sunday, I just thought I'd remind everyone that there is a proper way to wear your stirrups.  The higher cutout goes at the back of your leg.  So if anyone, for whatever reason, feels compelled to wear these magnificent creations...on the field, in the stands, at the office, in church, what have you...please wear them properly.

That is all.

Duly noted!

Rose goes in front, big guy.

The higher the stirrup, the cooler you look.

Absolutely false!  Traditional stirrups are 9 inch cuts.  You may substitute 7 inch cuts, but none of this "all stirrup/no sock" look.  That's bush.

I always take my 9s and cut them to add another 7" of stirrup. That's why I always wear shorts, so I can maintain my cool.

I submit Exhibit A.

In "Ball Four," written in 1969, Jim Bouton reported that some players were actually slicing the bottoms of their stirrups and sewing in some extra material so they could be stretched even higher, exposing as much white as possible. That way, wrote Bouton, "your legs look long and cool instead of dumpy and hot."

Precisely the wrong way to wear them. 

Curse you Frank Robinson!!
