The Mexico inspired 86 kit has went down well with fans, but some have been less than impressed with the cost.

One social media user tweeted: “New Scotland away top is cracking. Not grown adult paying £60 for a football top cracking, but cracking all the same.”

Another tweeted: “Grown men excited about a £60 Scotland top they’ll never wear to a tournament. They should be given away free as an apology for past 20 years.”

The kit will be worn for the first time when Scotland take on Hungary in Budapest next week.
