The Scotland Euro 2024 away kit is not the white or yellow you were perhaps expecting.
This is Scotland's second Euros in a row after qualifying for Euro 2024 in style. We associate them with tartan, of course – and they're going to be one of the best dressed, with the Euro 2024 kits still dropping and the home shirt an absolute corker.
When Adidas dropped their international shirts, however, it became obvious that this one would be a grower.

Because all great things happened in the 90s: Scotland's last World Cup, Ally McCoist's peak and Colin Hendry lifting the Premier League.
Unfortunately, we're not 100 per cent sure which shirt from the decade this one is supposed to be inspired by. Scotland never really had one in this colour, while the patterns on the sides are similar to the home top without looking particularly like they were influenced by a specific shirt.

“Following the theme of tartan and heritage, the away jersey is inspired by an iconic kit from the 90’s era, but with a fresh new look for today’s fans and players,” Adidas helpfully explain.
“A colourful and disruptive tartan graphic features against a unique light base colour, partnered with dark purple detailing that delivers a fresh new look. Both home and away showcase a Scotland flag, sketched with a tartan mix, on the back of the collar.”
Perhaps it's just the coolness of colour and the soft purple but this one doesn't immediately stand out. Maybe it just needs some memories to help it along the way…

More kit drops
Adidas have dropped their brand new home and away kits ahead of a Euros and Copa America in 2024.
Belgium's home top is a darker shade, with their away effort is something brand new altogether. Germany have solid efforts for their home kit and pink away kit, with Italy's home and away shirt both classic tops. Hungary have a vintage red home shirt with a white away shirt that has similar elements: Spain have an undestated red home jersey, while opting for a bolder away shirt.
It's Scotland's second Euros in a row: their home kit is modern and striking, while their away top is cooler and classic. Wales haven't yet qualified but their home shirt and away shirt are both vintage Dragons tops, too.
