The Newcastle United 2024/25 away kit is out, and Adidas have taken inspiration from an iconic shirt they manufactured 30 years ago.
Returning to the German brand was already met with great optimism, while the release of their home kit came with much fanfare. But now, Newcastle's away kit is out - trumping just about every other Premier League club in the process.
Magpies fans might enjoy games on the road a lot more this season when witnessing their side playing in a remake of an iconic number.

With burgundy and navy hoops, the new away kit takes clear inspiration from what Newcastle wore during the 1995/96 season, which is widely regarded as one of the best kits of all time and is certainly a fan-favourite.
The hoops are a lot thicker than the shirt released nearly 30 years ago, though, updated to house the logo, crest and 'Sela' sponsor.
Interestingly, Adidas have opted for a monochrome white version of the Newcastle crest, keeping a consistent theme throughout the accents of the new kit. Innovated and updaed for the modern day, it's undeniable that this has all the hallmarks of a brilliant away kit.
Eddie Howe said: “Adidas have done an amazing job with our kits, and I’m sure the new away kit will be hugely popular with players and supporters everywhere.
