Pretty much this Not a fan of them and personally wouldn't ever get on if the Rockets had them but I can see why they would make and market them
Totally agree. There's definitely a stigma with just wearing a sleeveless basketball jersey. Baseball, football, hockey jerseys seem to be more accepted. All the time, I see middle aged men, women, and even the elderly wearing hockey jerseys (Canada) but that's pretty rare for basketball jerseys. Edit - To be fair, I live in the Northwest so it's mainly Washington/Oregon state I'm talking about in regards to the states. I occasionally go down to Cali though. Maybe it's all basketball jerseys over on the East coast...what do I know.
They're normal ones are probably my favorite of the league. I like the the colors and they're very simple.

Football jerseys are definitely the most worn, but I see way more people wearing basketball jerseys that baseball. I'm not sure I've ever seen anyone wearing a baseball jersey and I've never owned one.
