mschaefer14 Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 I've been a member of the boards for over 13 years and finally felt it was time to contribute my first concept. I've enjoyed checking out everyone's contributions over the years so I'm thankful for all your work. I downloaded the template from a Google search so thank you to whoever created it, if you're out there! Not a whole lot of risks taken with this but it's what I am expecting (and REALLY hoping) to see the Bears roll out on June 7 at the 100th Anniversary Celebration. It pays homage (and is a proper throwback) to the Bears of the mid-30's led by Bronko Nagurski. We've seen about everything they could possibly do with a navy or orange throwback so I wanted to go with white. Odds are good that they'll wear the 100th anniversary jersey in the opener against Green Bay so it would make sense to wear white as they've done so in a few openers over the last decade or so. (I am not a huge fan of the leotard pant look but thought it worked with the extra-stripey striped socks.) Here we go... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdavidev Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Looks good, really bizarre that this uniform was a one-year wonder in Bears history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WBeltz Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 What would it look like with tan pants? I feel like it would be more accurate and it would break up the leotard look. Otherwise great job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise great job! Nope, the original also had blue pants. I really love this! I’ve thought for a while that if the Bears wanted a throwback alternate they should use this instead of the one they have been. I really hope they bring it out this season somehow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't expect to like it but I do. I'd still stick with the navy, though, even if it weren't historically accurate. Plus, I don't want my Bears to be responsible for starting a tan for tan's sake trend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NashConcepts Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 What if you inverted the color of the logo on the tan pants to add another outline and make it more legible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaGrandeOrange Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 Absolutely gorgeous, and much less garish than some old timey NFL throwbacks. Would love it if they wore these! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
