A scrimmage vest, sometimes referred to as a pinnie is a piece of clothing or sportswear , often made of mesh, used in practices as a substitute for a sports team's usual uniform or to differentiate temporary teams in informal scrimmages. Some teams elect to have benched players wear them during a game.
The origin of the term pinnie or pinny is a shortened form of the word pinafore.
An alternative system, especially in less formal situations, is shirts versus skins.
