The New Scotland Away Top has been revealed accidentally after it went on sale in an Sports Shop.
Tartan Army Message Board member Bart spotted in it an Edinburgh sport's shop earlier today. It was only available in a child size at the time and was mixed in with the older (diadora) yellow goalie tops. The current goalie top is sky blue.
The shirt is basically a yellow version of the current home top. Yellow front and back, Adidas 3 strips down each arm, Adidas logo on right, SFA logo on right.
The away top wasn't supposed to be available until the 18th August. It's due to be worn against Sweden on the 11th August.

Update - Shirt has now been launched by the SFA and is available to buy - more information here
Today the Scottish Football Association launched the new Adidas football strips.
We're waiting for more images to surface especially of the Lion Rampant that's supposed to be on the front.
From these images the shirt looks very skin tight that could prove interesting among the XL and XXL size Tartan Army!
From an enlargement of the image we can see a ghosted Scottish FA badge on the front of the shirt.
On eBay at the moment

There's been a lot of debate about what the new Scotland Adidas football strips will look like. We've gleaned a lot from Football Nations posts on Facebook as they were at the retailers only launch party back in November. No photographs from the event have leaked yet so we can only go by their description. What we know so far:-
Will be worn for the first time at the Scotland V Czech Republic match on Wednesday 3rd March 2010. The Home shirt will then be available to the public around June/July 2010. The away top will be available August 2010 to both the SFA and the public.
Navy with 3 white stripes down the sleeve from the neck line to the end. The collar is white and forms a circle round the neck. An embossed Lion Rampant shadow on the front along with the current SFA logo.
The shorts will be white with red socks.
The shirt will be a type 2 design. This means Adidas will use an existing design and customise it for Scotland.
The Away top will be yellow with navy blue stripes.
The Home top will be replaced in August 2011 by a brand new completely original and unique Adidas shirt.
The design below was created by TAMB member CraigCooper. It has been noted by sources that it's very close to the original.

Adidas have been confirmed as the new Scotland International kit supplier. The deal will run from January 2010 till June 2014 - taking in Euro 2012 and World Cup 2014 qualifications and hopefully the finals.
Scotland will first wear the new Adidas kit at the Scotland V Czech Republic match in March 2010.
The new gear will include match strips, replica strips, training gear and leisure wear. The new kit will go on sale in Spring 2010.
The SFA hope the new deal will bring high quality merchandise to Scotland supporters. Shops selling previous Diadora kit had complained that it always sold out quickly and securing new stock was difficult. In later years of the Diadora contract merchandise was only distributed through the Intersport chain of shops. This meant Diadora and the SFA could keep the shirts at full price for much longer.
