    I'm told it was moved a while back and the only one is in the Compaq Center. Looks like you will have to wait for the new arena.

    I hope there will be a store open all the time like 'The Shed'.

    They closed the shop just way before the Mall's big renovation project started. On all the other shops, they would put a sign that says, they moved to other section of the mall, etc. But never saw anything liked that on the Rox shop.

    They closed the Rockets Shop due to lack of sales. Maybe that had something to do with the fact that everything in there was waaaaaaaaaaaaay overpriced.

    Then again, it was a pretty cool store to look at if you were a Rockets fan.

    The store in the new arena will have regular retail business hours during the week as well as be open during games.

    Not until the building opens. Probably end of September.

    in this day and age an online shop would also be ideal.
    probably more ideal than a shop open during normal business hours.
    although im not sure if you could get around nbastore.com

    just make sure the shop carries the Nike Swingman version of the new uniform.

    I guess this hurts my theory of the unis being available at the September 4th ribbon cutting ceremony.

    Just for anyone who wants to know

    The new team store will be located on the Polk Street side of Toyota Center on the main concourse. And if i'm not mistaken, it will be the largest of all the team stores in history.

    End of September is the current timing for the store opening ... since we're waiting for inventory to arrive, and some of it comes from overseas, that date could shift a little bit one way or the other, though.

    Smeg, if you manage to get yourself overseas faster than we can open a store with some overseas goods, I'd feel horrible.

    We'll get right on it. ;)
