I believe it was the Blue Puttees. Named after their pants which were blue, this Newfoundland Regiment had roots traced back to 1795. All the khaki materials used to create most uniforms were used, therefore their pants were blue; this was the only material available at the time.
This is just off the top of my head. I'd double check if it is the Blue Puttees if I were you.
