NEWCASTLE UNITED have released their new away kit for the 2024-25 season, drawing inspiration from the classic 1995-96 design, worn during the era of the 'Entertainers.'
The retro kit design, available via the official Newcastle United club store and online, sees the return of a navy and burgundy horizontal stripe design, as worn by the Magpies in the mid-1990s.
Away games just got better 😮💨🚂

Eddie Howe, who features in the kit's launch video alongside current and former players, 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.
"This is an iconic club built on history and the 1995-96 team was one of our most entertaining ever. I'm sure our supporters will appreciate the nod to that era and will look forward to seeing our teams wearing it on the road."
Inigo Turner, design director at adidas, added: "Our renewed partnership with Newcastle United has allowed us to revisit some of the most iconic moments in the club's history.
"The 1995-96 season holds a special place in the hearts of the fans, and we are proud to bring back the spirit of that era with this new away kit. We look forward to seeing the team create new memories in this classic yet contemporary design."
The kit will be work for the first time when Howe's side take on Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium in their first away game of the new campaign on August 25.
