Kit Design Inspired by Scottish Peaks
Scottish Rugby Union and Macron have launched a new 2026/27 Away Kit for the national team. This jersey is inspired by Scotland's most untouched and authentic landscapes. The kit draws from the rugged beauty of the Scottish Highlands. A white base dominates the design, reflecting the snow and extreme natural vistas of the region. The jersey features a tone-on-tone graphic that captures the profiles of Scotland’s famous mountains. This includes a stylised tribute to the 282 Munros and thousands of smaller peaks stretching from Stranraer to the Shetland Islands.
The graphic design transforms Scotland’s geography into a key part of the visual identity. It strengthens the emotional and symbolic bond between the team and the country. A 3D thermo-plastic print on the chest displays both the Macron Hero emblem and the Scottish Rugby Union crest. These elements are placed with care to highlight their significance. Inside the collar, a special tape alternates between the word Scotland and the national symbol, the thistle. This detail adds a layer of meaning to the design.
The complete kit includes white shorts with navy-blue drawstrings. Sky blue inserts on the sides create a visual link with the jersey’s design. Navy-blue details on the sleeves are subtle but effective in maintaining the overall palette. The socks feature sky-blue upper trims with navy-blue accents. These touches help to create a consistent and cohesive look. The design reflects a broader visual concept developed for the 2026/27 season.
Sustainable Fabric and Production
Macron has used eco-friendly materials to manufacture the new Away Kit. The primary fabric is Eco Fabric, made from 100% recycled polyester. This material is derived from post-consumer plastic, reducing environmental impact. The jersey includes inserts made from Eco Armevo, Eco Boditex, and Eco Strong Mesh.
