Scottish Rugby and Macron launch new 2026/27 international kits

8 Jul 2026

Scottish Rugby, in partnership with Macron, have unveiled the international home kit to be worn on the world’s stage during season 2026/27, with Scotland Men’s game against Fiji in the Nations Championship the first opportunity to see it live in action.

Inspired by Scotland’s beautiful scenery, the 2026/27 campaign will see all Men’s, Women’s and U20 teams take to the field in a home shirt that pays tribute to Scotland’s coastline and an away kit with its foundations in the nation’s glacial past. Shop the 26/27 Home Kit Online Now.

The colours are labelled as ‘sand and ice’, to respectively pay homage to those themes of Scotland’s coastline and the changes brought to its landscapes by millions of years of geometrical shifts; through Ice Ages and the permanence of their presence.

The backdrop used for the home kit shoot is a real theatre backdrop, kindly leant to Scottish Rugby by The National Theatre of Scotland with thanks to Malcolm Stephen, Head of Stage.

This was used in a production of ‘The Cheviot, the Stag and the Black, Black Oil’, features the painting ‘The Monarch of the Glen’ by Sir Edward Landseer and was created for the show by designer Graham McLaren. What’s more, adorning Scotland’s 2026/27 home shirt on its shoulders and sleeves, a pattern depicting antlers in a nod to Landseer’s aforementioned painting from 1851 is woven in to tell the tale of a piece that resides at the Scottish National Gallery.

On the chest, 3D Thermoplastic application Macron Hero logo appears on the right, and a new application of the Scottish Rugby crest on the left. Inside the jersey, the Macron logo is accompanied by the wording “Designed in Bologna”, highlighting that every garment is conceived, designed and developed at the Macron Campus in Italy.

Inside the collar, a bespoke tape features the word “Scotland” alternating with the thistle. With light blue piping lining the sleeves as a further nod to the overall ‘sand and ice’ colour scheme, the home jersey, which is accompanied by dark blue shorts and socks once more, is complete.

As with all kits produced by Macron for its partner federations and clubs, the new Scottish Rugby kit is made using Eco Fabric, materials manufactured from 100% post-consumer recycled plastic. The primary fabric used is Eco Armevo, developed to provide outstanding durability and maximum performance, even during the most intense phases of play. Inserts in Eco Boditex and Eco Strong Mesh also ensure lightness, comfort and excellent breathability, helping to enhance both fit and functionality.

David Salisbury, Head of Retail & Licensing at Scottish Rugby, said: “We are delighted to finally unveil the 2026/27 Scotland home kit. A tremendous amount of care has gone into this collection, translating the unique sand and ice colours synonymous with the Scottish landscape into the trim details of our classic dark blue Scotland kit.

“Working alongside Macron, we have focused heavily on player comfort and premium finish—introducing a re-engineered neckline for an improved fit, alongside beautiful details like the subtle, tone-on-tone antler pattern on the shoulders and back. Macron have been fantastic collaborators in bringing this intricate vision to life, and we are confident that the players and fans alike will wear it with immense pride.”

Ross Cook, Macron’s Senior Technical Sponsorship Manager, said: “Every kit we create is the result of a truly bespoke design journey, and this new 2026/27 home shirt for Scottish Rugby is another powerful example of that. At Macron, our Design Team worked closely with Scottish Rugby to transform inspiration drawn from Scotland’s landscape, heritage and identity into a garment that is both technically advanced and rich in meaning. We are delighted to continue developing collections that combine innovation, craftsmanship and a deep respect for the traditions of Scottish rugby.”

Scottish Rugby’s Lead Creative Designer, Laura Chessar, added: “We had a lot of fun designing and launching the new kit; the images were taken in Leith Theatre with backdrops kindly donated by the Scottish National Theatre from a production of ‘The Cheviot, the Stag and the Black, Black Oil’, which really set the mood for what we wanted to achieve.”
