No, coca cola does not own the rights to the the red and white santa clause we all recognise.

It is speculated though, that many years ago St. Nicks colours were green and gold.

It was only after a famous coca cola christams ad campange, involving a train load of coke arriving on Christmas Eve, did his colours begin to change.

This change is seldom noticed, and forms a general connection between sata and coca cola, a very clever tactic indeed.

No, Coca Cola does not own Santa. However, the company created the American perception of him in their 1960's Christmas commercial. Yes, he does exist, do not believe that he is a myth because he is not!

What was santas original color?

The original colour of Santa - AKA Saint Nicholas (Santa was his nickname) was green. He was a Bishop, and green was the colour of his Bishop robes. He became famous because he was known to leave gifts and food for poor families and orphaned children on Christmas, hence where we get our stories of Santa Claus from. Coca-Cola changed his colour from green to red during their adverts on TV, because green represented their rival company, 7-Up.
