The jersey, which features pink horizontal stripes across the front with a solid yellow back and shorts also feature an original style felt badge as well as an embroidered tag commemorating the Rosebery Challenge Cup (The cup was competed for by clubs under the jurisdiction of the East Scotland FA. Contested from 1882/83 to 1944/45, it was a charitable competition with Edinburgh Royal Infirmary and the Leith hospital as chief beneficiaries. The Charity Cup raised almost £25,000 for good causes, which would be the modern day equivalent of around one million pounds).
A keen racehorse owner and patron of football, the Earl became Prime Minister in 1894 and was also President of the Scottish Football Association and Honorary President of Hearts. His racing colors of primrose yellow and pink were worn by the Scottish national team on nine occasions between 1881 and 1951, most notably in 1900 when Scotland defeated England 4-1.
The Rosebery tribute Scotland jersey was also worn by Hearts' legend Bobby Walker in 1901. The new Hearts away jersey is a contemporary take on that iconic Scottish strip.
The new Heart of Midlothian 2016-17 home kit is already available to buy, while the new away strip will be available from August.
