10U. Looking at new jerseys. A few parents are concerned with a full button-down jersey option. Some of the girls have button-down/dress shirts and say the buttons get stuck on their belts if they have to tuck them in. Others are concerned about the button's "gapping", from a modesty perspective (this may have been in reference to the stomach area, not the chest - but not sure). As a Dad, I clearly can't relate to the latter. Another opinion was that button-down looked too much like baseball jerseys (although my google-search showed me nearly every WCWS team with full jerseys - not just with 2 buttons at the top).
Maybe these were issues years ago if you played in HS or college? For those of you on teams with these types of jerseys (yes - I got tired of typing "button-down"), has this been an issue? Is the fit an issue when trying to size both ends of the weight and height spectrum? I think it makes them look like real ball players - other than a sleeveless option, I wasn't aware there was a "softball" look for jerseys.
As always, thanks in advance for your feedback.
Should also add - I'm not looking for ammunition so I can go down in a blaze of sublimated graphics - just looking for feedback from the wider DFP community.
