Starter: The Return of the Satin Jacket but no Rockets version?

Dang. They didn't even make a Rockets doormat.

I had credit card in hand.

 

a grey one with red and white would be sick.

 

the texans jackets are pretty slick.

funny, when i was watching the oilers '93 doc on nfl network the other night, i was wondering why they went out of style. the oilers' one that the coaches were wearing were awesome.

 

I haven't spotted any on online stores but saw the satin Rockets Starter jacket at the store Fanzz yesterday in the First Colony Mall for $170. Fanzz carries a lot of Rockets apparel I don't see online or in any other store.



Nice jacket and all, love the satin feel, but if you're going to shell out that much for a jacket, I say go vintage and get this one. Always one or two on eBay ranging from $50-$150. I just got mine a couple months ago and love it.

 

That retro one with the yellow looks pretty sick.

 

Man...brings back memories of my Starter "UCLA" jacket. I miss that thing.

 

Saw this satin Starter jacket (black version of the red one I posted above) on sale at Sports Authority for $99.99. Originally $150. Haven't seen it online anywhere. Sports Authority has the worst Rockets merchandise selection, but they finally carry a winner with this one.

$150 is way too much, so on sale at $100 is a bit more reasonable. It's not the 90's. People don't kill people for Starter jackets anymore.

 

They don't kill people for them because Starter has been a Wal-Mart brand the last few years....but now that they're back selling more expensive apparel, who knows what will happen?

That being said, I wouldn't buy anything too expensive from them, until i know their quality is back to those standards.

I guess their big jackets are back too, hadn't seen these new ones:

 

No Starter crap for me, Nike bro. Girlfriend ordered this for me a few months ago.

 

Wonder if that will replace the "Gonna get shot for your starter jacket" jacket.
