With the 2025/26 Premier League season set to kick off next weekend—and Sunderland returning to the top flight—the North East derby is back in business. For fans on the black-and-white side of the Tyne-Wear divide, Adidas is marking the moment with a special release of the Newcastle United x Adidas Samba, dropping just in time for the opening weekend.
The collaboration continues Adidas Football’s rollout of club-branded Samba pairs, joining previous editions for Arsenal, Manchester United, and more. Newcastle’s iteration keeps it classic, with a crisp white leather upper, black Three Stripe overlays, and a rich gum rubber outsole. The retro indoor silhouette gets dressed in the club’s iconic color scheme, complemented by a splash of teal at the heel—a nod to Newcastle’s away kit heritage of the 1990s.
The club crest takes pride of place on the tongue, stamped front and center beneath the laces, while a gold-foiled “SAMBA” hit on the midfoot finishes the vintage look.
The Newcastle United x Adidas Samba is available now via Adidas.com and select retailers.
