Care Instructions

Machine wash at maximum 30°C, delicate cycle, with similar colours. Avoid tumble dryer: air dry to preserve the brim shape and quality of the embroidered logo. Iron at low temperature if necessary, without placing the iron directly on the embroidery. Cotton withstands repeated washing without deformation, provided these simple precautions are followed.

Design

Macron chose 100% cotton over synthetic: a choice that prioritises comfort and natural breathability, essential for an accessory worn outdoors all day long. The cotton fabric absorbs perspiration and dries quickly, without creating overheating. The full brim is structured just enough to hold its shape without being rigid — it packs easily in a bag without deforming. The embroidered Scottish logo, rather than simple printing, guarantees durability even after many washes. The streetwear inspiration translates into a modern cut, slightly more fitted than traditional bucket hats, and a sleek design centred on national identity.

Nation: Scotland

Scotland's rugby union team, nicknamed the Thistle XV, plays at Murrayfield (Edinburgh) and competes each year in the Six Nations Championship. Founded in 1871, it is one of the founding nations of international rugby. Scotland embodies a tradition of committed and passionate play, supported by a devoted fan base that transforms Murrayfield into a fortress during home matches. Navy blue and white colours are instantly recognisable, symbols of a national pride deeply rooted in the history of British rugby.

Brand: Macron

Founded in 1971 in Bologna (Italy), Macron has established itself as the leading equipment supplier for many national rugby teams, including Scotland since 2020. The brand is distinguished by a rigorous technical approach coupled with modern design, far from overly conservative traditional codes. Work hard. Play harder sums up this philosophy: producing high-performance equipment that allows players and supporters to express themselves fully, on the pitch and in the stands. Macron brings recognised Italian textile expertise — precise finishes, crafted cuts — to serve the rugby identity of each partner nation.
