    I'm really digging the red color scheme. However the first thing I thought of when I saw these was a stingray, manta ray whatever you want to call it, haha. Excellent work though, friend.

    Been mucking around with a new template, so naturally had to do up a Rockets uni :)

    Looking forward to seeing this tweak to the typeface Tilman was suggesting for next season...

    Yeah, finally we get 'HOUSTON' back on our road unis I suspect. Tilman hols it dine for htine. Leslie is a New Yorker who wanted to wipe out any identity to the city and be known only for the brand name. Hopefully they fix the size of the wordmark as well and why can't we go back to our unique number font when these uniforms first came out? Fix the shorts stripe to now match the tops. If you're going to resort to minor tweaks, these are obvious and easy ones.

    I personally think with our current unis, we shouldn't use neck and sleeve trim. With the odd side stripes, the sleeve and thick V-neck trim looks odd. Might look cleaner and minimalist with no trim, just solid white for home and solid red for away. Might be shorter without trim, or might trick my eyes, but I think players look fitter in non trim sleeves as well. Our black unis have a dark grey sleeve trim and red neck trim, but the dark grey sleeve trim almost looks like its just black like the rest of the jersey giving the effect of no sleeve trim but still using neck trim. That works too.

    I don’t like the addition of the gray font to the reds. Can we keep it white font?

    Yeah, I agree. White font would look perfect on road 'HOUSTON' jersey. Are we expecting to have new jerseys next year?

    He said font change and minor changes. I hope we lose our Chinese jerseys and replace them with classics

    If/when the Rockets win a title, they should bring back those retro updates during the Harden/Howard era and keep the statements as a alternate.

    I'm feeling the opposite, get rid of white entirely in modern unis and keep the gray.

    Red, Gray and Black unis (checkerboard) and only have the retro/Clutch City as yellow, red white.

    Soon as I saw Harden arrive in that NASA get-up I had to create a uni based off it. Finally found some daylight to do it.

    (This isn't a serious concept. Just messing around :-D )

    Really really great design.

    If you adddd the right shade of yellow it’d be interesting and Ferrari-esque. Probably too much.

    What you have is really nice.

    Man, I have looked at all of the jersey ideas and this one is by far the most unique and fitting for Houston. These would be instant classics and in my opinion on par with the Rockets Championship jerseys. Great work !! Love them!
