Fashion brand Barbour has signed a deal with the Newcastle Falcons to become the official clothing partner of the English Premiership rugby union team.
Under the three-year agreement, which begins with the forthcoming 2013-14 season, Barbour will provide jackets, shirts and trousers for the team to wear when representing Newcastle off the field.
This includes clothing for travel to and from away matches, press days and community and school visits.
Newcastle sealed its return to English rugby union’s top flight after a one-year absence last season when it overcame Bedford Blues in the second-tier Championship play-off final.
