Scotland aren't going to Euro 2016, but as we Irish know, missing a tournament is not an excuse to put off releasing a new jersey.

Typically Scottish home jerseys don't vary much, as they stick to the navy blue and maybe mix something tartan in there too, and the new jersey for 2016 is no exception:

A bit more white than usual, but still fairly straightforward.

However, when it comes to away kits, Scotland truly excel in finding something that looks ridiculous, and 2016 looks to set the bar even higher with this luminous pink number that will stick out like a sore thumb wherever someone wears it:

Awful.
