Newcastle have officially unveiled their new home kit for the 2025-26 season and boasted a ‘fresh twist’ on their iconic black and white design.
The eye-catching new strip pays tribute to the club’s roots with the usual vertical stripes blended with the shepherd’s check – a classic northern motif.
Manufacturers Adidas have also incorporated subtle blue detailing which contrasts the two main colours and features across the sleeve cuffs and collar.
The authentic version of the strip features cutting-edge fabric, allowing players to perform at their peak under pressure, while the replica version includes AEROREADY technology, providing comfort for supporters on matchdays and beyond.
Newcastle’s ‘Howay the Lads’ motto has been stamped on the kit’s neck.
The club have pledged to donate £5 to the Newcastle United Foundation with every shirt sold via their official website or store before the end of August.

The design will make its debut when Newcastle host Everton this Sunday in their final Premier League game of the season – with Champions League football on the line.
In a statement, Adidas said: ‘Newcastle United’s black and white stripes are among the most iconic designs in football. This year, we’ve looked deeper into their origin to bring fans something rooted in tradition, yet bold and new.
‘The shepherd’s check adds a unique layer of storytelling, connecting supporters more closely to the club’s identity.’
Highlighting the campaign for the club’s foundation, Peter Silverstone, Newcastle’s chief commercial officer, added: ‘This season’s kit launch is about more than just what our players wear on the pitch – it’s about supporting our community.
‘For every shirt sold through official club channels, we’ll be donating £5 to the Newcastle United Foundation.
‘It’s a way for supporters to not only wear the badge with pride, but to directly contribute to the life-changing work the Foundation does across the region. Together, we’re making a difference – on and off the pitch.’
The jersey will go on sale from May 29 from Adidas, the club’s website and retailers.
Meanwhile, Newcastle recently announced controversial plans to redesign the club’s badge for the 2026-27 season, risking a backlash from supporters.

Newcastle are in the process of designing a new badge, believing their current one is outdated
Figures at St James’ Park believe the crest, which dates back to 1988, is unsuited for the modern day and the club have begun working with designers.
Supporters have also been consulted ahead of the rebrand. The new image, once confirmed, will be the fourth crest worn by Newcastle players since the 1950s.
