The reason that Santa wears red is because Coca Cola created an advert of him in red and white so that he was Coca Cola colours.
But there's another theory...
Santa's sleigh has two runners, two tons of toys and eight reindeer
Two plus two plus eight makes twelve.
There are twelve inches in a foot.
Rulers are a foot long.
Queen Elizabeth II is a ruler and is also the name of the largest ship that sails the seven seas.
Seas have fish and fish have fins.
The Finns fought the Russians and the Russians are red.
Santa is always Russian (rushin') and that is why he is dressed in red!

The green garmented Father Christmas was first seen in story form in the Dickens "A Christmas Carol" (Scrooge). The happy man was almost giant in size and represented "Christmas Present".
The depiction of Santa in red and white was first created by Thomas Nast. He was a cartoonist who created the image for "Harpers Weekly" in the USA in 1863. Historically, Coca-Cola was not the first soft drink company to use the modern image of Santa Claus in its advertising - White Rock Beverages actually used Santa to sell their mineral watern 1915 and then in advertisements in 1923 for its Ginger Ale. Coca Cola then used the depiction in 1930.
