What type of clothing did the north west mounted police wear?

The North West Mounted Police (NWMP), established in Canada in 1873, typically wore a distinctive red serge uniform, which included a tunic, trousers, and a wide-brimmed Stetson hat. Their uniforms were designed for both practicality and visibility, featuring a dark blue collar and yellow stripes on the trousers. Officers also wore leather boots and carried a sidearm, while their attire was emblematic of their role in maintaining Law and Order in the Canadian West. The red serge remains a symbol of the NWMP, now known as the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP).
