Mike Ditka’s coach-worn Chicago Bears sweater vest from Super Bowl XX
The Chicago Bears celebrated the 40th anniversary of their Super Bowl XX win, the lone Super Bowl title in franchise history. And while the Bears found success in 2025 under Ben Johnson, they were able to look back at that Super Bowl and relive those memories.
Arguably the biggest face of that Super Bowl was head coach Mike Ditka. He along with his coaching staff helped lead the team to a Super Bowl run as they dominated all season long. Now, a iconic item from that Super Bowl has been sold in an auction.
Mike Ditka’s Super Bowl sweater sells at auction
The sweater vest he wore in Chicago’s Super Bowl win over the New England Patriots just sold fetching $183,000 in an auction at Goldin. It’s an iconic drak blue sweater vest in size XXL and features “BEARS” in white letters across the front. There’s also an orange solid line above the “BEARS” and below it as well.
The piece is a a special one as Goldin’s Dave Amerman said.
“It brings that moment back, and you know there’s many famous images. That’s an iconic, very visible sweater that a lot of people associate with (him) wearing,” said Dave Amerman, Goldin’s head of revenue. “Many, many images of him during that Super Bowl where you see this sweater. That is so unique. …
“It’s one of those pieces that you’re like, ‘No way!’”

The iconic sweater did feature a letter of provenance that was signed by Ditka himself. There’s also a potential photo match of it to that game via a company but there was not a 100% guarantee. It’s a cool sweater and an iconic item from that Super Bowl team.
How Goldin acquired it is an interesting story as well. It came from a family in Chicago who was close to the Ditka’s.
“This one came out of Chicago, a family in Chicago,” Amerman said. “We were in Chicago doing some business. We have a guy out there where there was an expo a couple months ago. The guy basically walked it in. He was friends with the (Ditka) family. He had all sorts of other items. We didn’t really know what to think. It’s hard. You know, not every day you see something like this walk in. But they had their mind made up on Goldin right from the beginning. They came right to Goldin and were ready to go. … The timing was great, but we spent months researching and making sure everything was good.”
The sweater now has a new home and hopefully a collector will now get to enjoy it.
