looks better than the 2004 version they tried but not much different from the last one they used ... all they did was move the number from the sleeve to the top of the shoulder

so why did they make a big deal out of this "special unveiling"?

So a clarification: The 40s throwbacks are STILL around. They fall under the new uniform categorization of "classics." The orange jersey is an "alternate."

The Bears will wear the 40s 'classics' this season in a game that hasn't been announced.

The orange is back for Week 6 at Miami and Week 11 vs. Minnesota.

I never liked the orange uniforms... Rather have the throwbacks they've been wearing those look cool. Orange just doesn't look intimidating looks more like they should be at a rave or soccer match.

Some will buy these specifically because they were hyped up.
