This is Newcastle United's new third kit for the 2011/12 campaign, which will be available here.
The all-black strip, which includes a couple of white diagonal thin stripes across the top of the chest, also features a gold Puma logo and gold Newcastle club crest.
It is not the first time the Magpies have turned out in a predominantly all-black change kit, with similar strips being used in the 2000/01 and 2003/04 seasons - both under the management of Sir Bobby Robson.
When the new home kit was launched last month shirt sales were dramatically up on those from the previous year, and the Club are hopeful that this new third kit will be similarly popular with the Toon Army.

I can't even believe I am positively intrigued by Newcastle's Kits...
This shirt should be brought back EVERY FUKEN YEAR!
Slick lines, brilliant badge/crest, and the sponsor matches well with the shirt's outlook..
My favorite part? That red dot beside the sponsor, smart and cool!
Gotta assume you're joking mate. This is such a money spinner for fat Mike.

Home this year mainly black with less white.
Away rumored to be orange, so there is no need for a 3rd shirt.
Yet Puma make an all black 3rd shirt, this is clearly not needed.
Smart though . . .
well if i was a newcastle fan id buy this shirt
Why do people hate the Home Kit.... looks same as previous years just abit smoother and better.
You people aint got a clue about kits
Home Kit >>> 3rd Kit
Like the gold features on this, only thing is that it would be nice to have the stripes on the badge in white rather than gold.
Please !!!
COME BACK ADIDAS !!!
Cynical, money grabbing bastards.
It'll be worn, and that's good because it's a beautiful shirt for once.
Its WAY better than the home kit, but like everyone on here says, just utterly irrelevant.
There isn't any sense for a random third unless there's a bigger meaning to it for me. In the end, just like last years, this just comes off like a training top template that Puma pump out, and move on to the next team's template. They even resorted to recycling the home socks and, basically, home shorts. Bummer.
Do you not have a swansea fans forum you could use? Nobody cares here...
Wats problem censored
Notice they wore a change kit last year when then was no clash at all? (Maybe Vs Liverpool or someone).
As for the making money thing by constantly changing kits: law of averages says that fans might only like every 2nd one anyway, so probably don't buy kits more often than they would normally.
I am a Chelsea fan and that has pretty much been the case for me: every 2nd year I like the home kit and then the odd away kit here and there.
At least there is choice. Fans can simply chose. Dedicated, passionate fans or collectors might want every one! Parents just have to be stern and say NO to their kids!!
on top of that, sometimes the 3rd kit is good for international games where you have a free licence to do what you like with numbers, names, placement etc that you can't get away with in the strict rules of kits in the English FA
How childish, dude your just saying we are shit because we are a close team but OK lets play your way.
Shite team?? Who beat you 5-1 end of october??
Who is the team who is the 2nd worst premier league team??
and who came 2nd in the prem once.
shush.
People take offence to the idea of third kits, but people buy them for the same reason they do training kits. It's got your club logo on it, and you can wear it for other things. I wear the home kit to games, and I wear anything else with Newcastle on it because it's just a top for playing sport, relaxing or working outside.
If you're going to censored about third kits being just for money then have a go at training kits as well because they sell them to you for the same reason. I get third or away kits at the end of the season, they're dirt cheap, good for activity and they have the club badge on them. The FA says clubs need third kits, so be it, but nobody is telling you it's essential to have all 3 kits to be a fan. If anything, if I hate the training or away kit, I like that there's more variety and choice.
the away kit is the same design as this, only in bright orange. hope that is bright enough for you.
so that's why the newcastle united website is selling your photoshopped orange kit.......
