Newcastle United 25-26 Third Kit
The image below shows the new Adidas Newcastle United 25-26 third football shirt.
The Adidas Newcastle 2025-2026 third jersey revives the striking aesthetic of the 1997-98 away shirt, featuring a rich navy blue base paired with vibrant orange accents.
While the 1997-98 away shirt was known for its bold green and amber vertical stripe and oversized Newcastle Brown Ale logo, the 25-26 third kit takes a more minimalist approach.
It keeps the color palette and overall vibe, but reimagines it for a modern context. The new kit also includes subtle vertical pinstripes integrated into the fabric, enhancing the visual depth.
The collar is a modern take on the original, featuring a layered trim of orange and light blue, while the sleeve cuffs mirror this detailing for a consistent finish.
The club crest is rendered in full color on the left chest, opposite the orange Adidas Originals logo.

Adidas Argentina Messi Farewell Kit Teased
Adidas and the Argentine Football Association have teased a special-edition commemorative jersey celebrating Lionel Messi for his final appearance with the national team. Following the announcement of his retirement from international duty after a legendary career spanning 207 caps and 125 goals, Messi is set to wear the bespoke design in his farewell match against Benin at the Estadio Monumental on October 6, 2026.
The unique kit departs from the traditional striping format, opting for a sky-blue base accented by a single broad white central stripe. Tonal rays inspired by the Sun of May radiate across the front and back of the torso. In a rare personal touch, Messi's signature 'M' logo replaces the traditional Adidas performance logo on the right chest in metallic gold, balanced by the gold-accented three-star Argentina crest on the left. The crew-neck collar and sleeve cuffs are finished in black with sleek gold edging.
On the reverse, the shirt features gold 'MESSI 10' printing framed by the radiant sunburst motif, topped by a small Sun of May emblem just below the rear collar. Messi previewed the shirt on social media with the message "One last match... A jersey for a lifetime," offering a fitting tribute as he prepares to close his historic international chapter.
