Only so much you can do with stripes, it's been about a new kit a year for almost 20. I don't mind the odd design which is out of the ordinary. 

Aye, this is me too. Not saying I love the shirt, I'll reserve judgement until I see it in the flesh, but I do like the idea they've been a bit wacky and done something we've never really seen before. You need to mix it up now and again  or you get the complaints that all home kits are too similar. Can't have it both ways really

Out of interest, what takes precedence for people when it comes to their view on shirts? 

 

Whether it looks 'right" and/or good as a Newcastle kit which the team wears on the pitch; or

 

Whether it's something you'd want to wear

In all honestly I’m never really too bothered I very very rarely buy a shirt to wear and the team usually make most shit shirts look half decent especially when we are winning. After the first 5 or 6 games I barely even register what the kit looks like. I’d have been far more invested 20 years ago

I don't like it. I didn't really like the original barcode kit and I haven't liked many recently as they are too busy. I'm a bit of a purist - I like simple kits. Plain black and white stripes, ideally on the thick side, with a striped back and number patch. 

 

The Asics kit we wore when we first got promoted to the Premier League was class.

I actually don’t mind that barcode kit. Would’ve been better if it wasn’t so symmetrical. The thicker stripe being on one of the sides.

 

The back having a white patch takes it from being an 8/10 to a 3/10 mind.

Liked both last seasons away kits but the Adidas home kits and this seasons aways are poor IMO. Next season’s home is a new low. Thank god for the retro stuff!

Is there a picture of the back of the shirt?

Would be the first interesting home shirt since 1992. Not that some of the ones in between weren't very nice, 93-98 was an awesome run and the 1995 one is an all-timer. But it's been, for the most part, a pretty unimaginative few decades. About time we did something a bit different for once. 

 

Think a funky design would look better with the lettery NUFC badge mind, rather than our rather fussy traditional one.
