The tradition of wearing red coats, particularly by British soldiers, dates back to the 17th century. The bright red color was chosen for its visibility on the battlefield, as well as for its ability to hide blood stains, which was advantageous during combat. Additionally, the bold color served as a unifying symbol of the British Army, helping to foster a sense of identity and esprit de corps among troops. Over time, the red coat became an iconic representation of British military history.
