05 Bears Jerseys ?
Did the 2005 Bears gamers use kiss cut style numbers?

Kiss-cut twill started in 2004 for the Bears.
I sent you an e-mail, Nil.

Gentlemen:
I am not familiar with the terminology "kiss-cut numbers" and "kiss-cut twill". Please provide a description and post photos if possible.
Thanks so much!

Re: 05 Bears Jerseys ?
"Kiss-cutting" is the practice of making 2 to 3-layer twill numbers not as thick and cumbersome by simply making the "background" numbers as borders and not fully stacked layers of twill. I.E, Buccaneers home jersey numbers normally have 3-layer twill numbers: white on orange on black. Rather than have 3 stacked thickness' of twill they simply make the black and orange twill border the top white number.

Mark, don't feel like the Lone Ranger, I never heard that term either. It looks like something that Reebok may have went to in 06. I didn't look at all my 06 jerseys, just the one's that were displayed and easy. Attached are 06 jerseys of Tomlinson, Cadillac and Urlacher.

As stated before, the first examples I've seen of Reebok using kiss-cutting were in '04. The jersey from my previous post is an '04 Brian Kelly.

Is that 06 orange Urlacher gamer you own? Would love to see some pictures of that one. One of my favorite jersey looks in the NFL....

Indyred, that is the Urlacher alternate 06 jersey. Attached are some general photos. Let me know if there is something specific you want to see.
34swtns, its always good to learn something new. I guess I did not pay attention to that.

Rick and Roger,
Thanks so much for the great information and photos.
I agree with Indyred. Those orange Bears jerseys are also one of my favorites!
