    Ok, maybe someone can help me out here but I cannot find Dwight Jerseys online anywhere except for Rockets Shop and they are sold out of the alternate one in my size.
    Ive looked everywhere(Amazon,NBA Store, Fansedge, Fanatics, etc.) and all they have is the stupid black fashion jersey.

    I figured with such a big acquisition like this his jerseys would be everywhere online but that is not the case, and the other big players that have moved teams like Pierce and Iggy have their jerseys available on other sites, heck even the Pelicans jersey is available.

    Does anyone know where I can get an Alternate Dwight jersey online thats not from China?

    Complete guess: Rockets are holding exclusive rights for now so they can collect high margins from fans who must have the new Howard jersey RIGHT AWAY! Once they have harvested the high-value customers, they will open up their other channels to get volume sales at lower margins.

    they had em at the team shop for the pep rally but my guess is that they're waiting on shipments to come in because of the manufacturing process involved and don't want to run out of stock

    When I was in Houston last week I saw a bunch of replica Howard jerseys at Sports Authority in the Galleria.

    During 1 of Parsons' 'Twitter Q&A Sessions', a fan asked about upgrading the jersey design and Parsons said he "was working on it :)". If true I would be surprised if we didn't roll out a new design in 2014-2015.

    Yes hopefully it's just a hint we're getting new uniforms. I so wish the NBA would let us have a Sunday black. Howard has never been that high on jersey sales anyway has he?
