I believe the Bears wore the jerseys without any stripes for the first time during the 1971 season. I also think they wore the same style for 1972. These jerseys were most likely worn in other years for preseason games. Does anyone have any insight or photo evidence of the Bears wearing the no stripe on the sleeve jerseys for 1974? Thanks for any help! Bruce

According to this photo they did wear stripes, at least in the first game. This was taken in August 1974.

The Bears didn't have stripes for one year; 1971. It would appear that for the team photo in 1972 they also more the non-stripped jerseys. The Bears are well known for recycling jerseys for practice, so there is a chance that in 1974 someone on the Bears was wearing one of these non-striped jerseys.
