Scotland Away 2009-10 Diadora Kit.jpg)
Diadora and The Scottish FA announced the launch of the new Scotland Away Kit which will be worn by the team in the crucial world Cup qualifier in Amsterdam on 28th March 2009. The kit will be on sale the week before the game in order to enable the fans to wear their colours with pride in Holland and is now available to pre-order from today.
The players’ initial reactions on the first viewing have been fantastic, liking it to the previous away strip which has been a players and fans favourite since its launch in 2007.
The Away kit is a true combination of the latest in performance garment technology, Scottish football tradition and Italian styling:
Fabric
The fabric is composed by a skilful mix of pinstripe jacquard fabric, plain jacquard and elastic net. This mix ensures the maximum transpiration for a more comfortable and healthy sport activity. Thanks to the effect “ULTRA DRY”, humidity and sweat are drawn away from the fabric and are able to evaporate quickly.
The collar, composed with an elastic fabric, is inserted into the shirt ensuring a perfect fitting and maximum comfort as a normal round neck, while adding the classic effect of the traditional collar.
A mesh side panel comes down from the shoulders to the hips creating an exclusive design with a Y shape from front to back.
In the back, just below the neck, there’s the “ALBA”, the ancient Gaelic name of Scotland, just to underline the long Scottish tradition in soccer and favourite fine detailing with the fans.
Quality
The exclusive quality seal applied in the bottom rear hem of the shirt is a certificate of the product’s originality and guarantees the Diadora quality standard.

Comments
I prefer the home version.
I think they should just do a newer version of the last one...cos that one was perfect...
Previous one was very much better, with the light blue st.Andrew cross
It won\'t be long before Diadora realise they can put real collars on shirts, not just pretend ones.
Arsenal - the old badge was much better, the cannon is the wrong way round now
QPR - liked the Q.P.R design
Wednesday - liked the simple owl design
Anyone remember the Newcastle badge with the NUF and the upsidedown C!
Sunderland - like many Man city included have gone for the elaborate \'coat of arms\' style
As for the shirt (back on track) I like it, it\'s not horrible, but it\'s nowt special I agree.
Surely white is Englands colour?
We have two flags, why not have strips that represent these?
Could we not have had a red or yellow shirt at least those are represented on one of our flags?
Leave the white shirts for the England team.
I want to see my country playing in our colours.
Diadora are an Italian company and have no idea nor care about the Scottish nation or it\'s heritage.
This is shown with the white shirt as it could not be less Scottish if it tried.
Change the Lion rampant for three lions and you will see what I mean.
Why is everyone messing with their badges. As with the new England badge, Scotland have been using the same badge for a squillion years...LEAVE IT ALONE.
Though fair play to them for going back to red socks for the home strip
Shame no one outside of your bedroom gives a f*** what you think.
i\'m not Scottish.
And your reply shows everyone exactly what you are.
good luck.
You are a stupid, juvenile, illiterate c**t.
LOL!!!
We need to go back to umbro.
And I prefer the crest from the 60\'s and 70\'s if we are planning on getting rid of this current one.
why will the sfa pull in a lot more revenue from a nike jersey than a diadora one? if you think more sales of shirts then sadly you would be very wrong and my description of you would be a correct one.
The new England gear is brilliant, its went back to basics and 99% of folk I know love it.
Scotland shirts never look right and for a country that loves our history, we tend to look back at it and buy the old replicas from toffs as the new ones are just not nice on the eye.
If you walk through Glasgow, the teenagers are seen wearing Barca, Marseille and Inter shirts and tracksuits, not because of the team but the folk that make and design it.
Get the finger oot Diadora!
