Since their establishment in 1962, the Houston Astros have fired the imagination of sports fans, which explains why Houston Astros jerseys remain as popular as ever. The 'Stros were initially named the Colt .45s but the name was later dropped in order to come up with a more modern and appropriate moniker. Houston was the center of space research and flight, so the more relevant 'Astros' nickname was used. This occurred around the time they relocated to the Astrodome, which helped cement the adoption of the name. To date, the 'Stros have won 2 West Division titles, 4 Central Division titles and 1 National League Pennant.
The black, sand and brick red colors of the Houston Astros' uniforms are a dominant combination in their home turf, Houston, the largest city in Texas. Houston is a center for energy, transportation, energy, manufacturing and aeronautics. The city is home to a diverse community, with immigrants from Mexico and Asia making up a good number of the population. Houston is of course famous for the Space Center, which hosts exhibits and shows related to NASA's projects. Many of the exhibits are also objects and items used or discovered during space flights. The city is also known for its many parks (337 in all), zoos and museums.
