Bruno Guimaraes and Lewis Hall in Newcastle United's 2026/27 away kit

Newcastle United have turned back time with their new away kit by switching back to the club crest worn by Kevin Keegan as a player.

The club badge, worn by stars like Keegan, Peter Beardsley and Chris Waddle, in the 1984 promotion winning team, sits alongside the Adidas trefoil logo.

A club statement read: "The deep 'night navy' V-neck jersey features a graphic of the club's historic castle, celebrating our city's rich heritage.

"Honouring our storied past, the shirt also features a vintage Newcastle United crest inspired by the badge worn in the 70s and 80s. A classic Magpie motif sits on the back of the neck, completing a design rooted in tradition.

"Signature adidas detailing - including the iconic 3‑Stripes and Trefoil logo - elevates the look, while navy shorts and socks complete the full away kit. adidas’ Climacool technology and quick drying fabric deliver distraction free comfort - whether worn on the pitch or in the stands."

Commenting on the launch, Newcastle United full-back and boyhood Magpies fan Lewis Hall said: "Growing up as a fan, I know that some of the best memories can come from travelling to matches with friends and family.

“There’s such a special connection between fans who travel the country to support us. The chance to wear this shirt and represent them on the pitch is always going to be an incredible feeling.

"This design, especially with the vintage crest, looks very special and I can’t wait to run out in it this season."

The shirt is available via shop.newcastleunited.com and www.adidas.co.uk/football-jerseys.
