FAN-FOCUSED DESIGN
This is a high-quality fan version short sleeve jersey, made to echo the on-field look while being built for everyday streetwear, casual outings, and loud game day support.
PERFORMANCE FABRIC
The lightweight breathable performance knit build pulls sweat away from the skin and dries quickly, so a hot afternoon in the stands never turns into a problem.
SHAPE & SILHOUETTE
Slightly tailored through the shoulders and chest for a clean, sporty silhouette that works for both game days and casual street styling.
STYLE IT YOUR WAY
It works three ways: over a hoodie in cold weather, on its own in the sun, or under an open shirt when you want the colors to peek through.
STYLING IDEAS
Keep it simple on game day and let the colors do the work. For everything else, layer it over a long-sleeve tee in cooler months or wear it solo once the weather turns.
SIZING TIP
Runs true to size. Size up if you prefer a looser fit or room to layer underneath.
EASY CARE
Machine wash cold inside out. Tumble dry low or hang to dry. Skip the iron on printed areas.
BUILT TO LAST
Reinforced seams and colorfast graphics, so the Houston Rockets colors stay sharp season after season.
