Something to do with red dye being cheaper I think.
::dunno:: I still think their uniforms looked smarter than the colonial uniforms of horseshit and spittle.

"the French general asked, "Why do you English officers all wear red coats? Don't you know the red material makes you easier targets for us to shoot at?"
In his bland English way, the colonel informed the general that the reason English officers wear red coats are so that if they are shot, the blood won't show and the men they are leading won't panic. And that is why, from that day to this, all French Army officers wear brown pants."
