    I think this needs it's own thread. Although it looks like the blog post was deleted, I think it's probably accurate. Basically, our current ketchup and mustard alternates will have sleeves and our usual uniforms will be cut like the current alternate.


    Props to rockstarbanana for catching it before it was taken down.

    The current cut makes Parsons' puny arms look even punier. Of course he loves the change.

    YES

    Hopefully it's a full redesign, but even just changing the cut is better than nothing

    I still don't know why they don't bring back the classic jersey with the non-italic font like the Francis era team was sporting. That was the best version in my opinion.

    I wouldn't mind seeing the late 90s pinstripes at least a few times during the season.

    Disappointed that this is the only change. I was really thinking we'd get all new uniforms. It just makes so much sense to make a change right now.

    I agree that with a "new age" of rockets it would be ideal to change up the uniforms, but if I'm correct the rockets still have several ties with Chinese/Taiwanese companies so maybe that's why we're sticking with our current logo and jerseys

    Yeah I'm pretty bummed those are the only changes. Also, I'm not much of a fan of the short sleeved "jerseys" but I guess if Dwight and Chandler like them...
