What's the color of John Wayne's shirt in this screenshot from Howard Hawks' Rio Bravo (1959)? He wore the same color in John Ford's The Searchers (1956).

A B C D
Obviously it is C. In fact, it is not uncommon for Western heroes to wear pink shirts. It's still a shade of red and red as a hot and powerful color has long been associated with powerful men.

B. red seems to bright. tan seems to bland.
Is it A?
I'm gonna go with D.
I forgot to submit my answer the other day and to be honest I would've gotten it wrong anyway. My first choice was A.
I would've never have guessed Red but when you explained that Red is a powerful color being associated with power guys (or in this case, manly cowboys in western films) it makes much more sense to me now.
