Houston Rockets Embroidered Patches
The Rockets joined the league in 1967 as the San Diego Rockets before moving to Houston in 1971, and this houston rockets patch lineup mostly draws on the branding that’s followed the team since that move. Red has stayed the dominant color throughout, and the current logo, a stylized “R” with an orbiting basketball, is the design most fans recognize first.
There’s also a version closer to the Hakeem Olajuwon championship era of the mid-’90s, with a bolder, more angular look than the current mark, for fans after a specific stretch of team history rather than the newer branding.
For something simpler, there’s a wordmark option in this houston rockets jersey patch selection, just “Rockets” in clean lettering, better suited to a cap than the fuller logo design.
Every houston rockets iron on patch here is embroidered instead of printed, so fine detail like the orbit lines or lettering edges holds its shape through repeated washing instead of cracking. Backing comes in iron-on, sew-on, or Velcro, depending on whether the patch stays on one piece of gear or moves between a few.
