The sound of Scotland features on the new home kit

25 Jul 2025

Macron and Scottish Rugby have unveiled the new home kit for all national teams for the 2025-26 season. The kit will first be worn during the upcoming Quilter Nations Series in November, followed by the Men’s, Women’s and U20s Six Nations Championships, that begin in the New Year.

For the 2025-26 home kit, long-standing partners, Macron and Scottish Rugby, have chosen a classic navy blue crew-neck jersey enriched with subtle heather purple details. The design features two striking graphic elements, both closely linked to the identity of the nation. On the sleeves, a tonal print depicts the sound wave generated by the fans chanting SCOTLAND! SCOTLAND! SCOTLAND! SCOTLAND! The word “Scotland” itself is then embossed repeatedly across the lower back of the shirt.

On the chest, embroidered in white, the Macron Hero logo appears on the right, and the Scottish Rugby crest on the left. 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 Scottish Rugby crest.

The home kit is completed by navy blue shorts featuring lighter navy vertical stripes down the sides and purple detailing on the leg hems. The navy socks are finished with a thin horizontal heather purple stripe at the top.

Ross Cook, Macron’s Senior Technical Sponsorship Manager, said: “So excited to be unveiling the new Scottish Rugby home kit as a tribute to the unique roar of Scottish Gas Murrayfield and the Hive .

“We’ve tried to capture the emotion every fan feels as the stadium erupts, interpreting that iconic sound into a striking sound wave design embossed into the fabric of the jersey.

“This jersey doesn’t just represent a Scottish team, it echoes a nation’s pride.”

Scottish Rugby’s Lead Creative Designer, Laura Chessar, added: “I am thrilled to unveil the new Scotland home kit. This season’s design on our traditional dark navy base with a hint of purple heather on the trim is brought to life with the actual sound wave of home fans chanting ‘SCOTLAND! SCOTLAND! SCOTLAND!’ illustrated across the players’ shoulders and the words across their backs.

When you hear the chant, the hairs stand up on the back of your neck and you’re transported to the electric atmosphere of Scottish Gas Murrayfield matchday.

Designed in-house, in collaboration with macron, I hope it resonates with everyone who wears the jersey.”

As with all technical garments produced by Macron for its partners, the new Scotland home kit is made from Eco Fabric – a 100% recycled polyester material derived from plastic bottles. This choice delivers a strong message of sustainability and environmental responsibility. Specifically, the fabrics used include Eco Armevo, Eco Bodytex and Eco Strong Mesh, which combine lightness and breathability with maximum durability.

The 2025/2026 home kit and the Rugby World Cup match kits, together with replica versions and the exclusive closing line and merchandise line designed by Macron, for Scottish Rugby are available from today at the Official Scottish Rugby Stores: Queen Street, Glasgow and Scottish Gas Murrayfield, Edinburgh. Available in other retailers from 2 August. The away kit will be released in the coming weeks.
