    As a Brit I can definitely see the English-ness of RMCP outfit. Whoever designed it based it off the queen's guards look.

    Best police uniform in the world ever. Bar none and I'm not even Canadian.

      Shamandy Shoe-fly not the only uniform they wear. It’s only for ceremonial things. They have American like police uniforms

    Not being Canadian, I would like to know more about the RCMP uniform. This video did not explain it despite the title.

    Nothin' like a shinny pair of High-browns.

    The reason they wear redcoats is because back when the British and the French were there the French were treating the local tribes badly however the British were treating them fairly so the tribes said to the mounted police you must wear red and when the brits left it stayed that way

    I was almost a Mountie and still think I should have gone for it. It is Canada like hockey.

    Why do they dress that way? Tradition. Something the 21st century has forgotten.

    Don't want to think of the cost of these boots!

    How Much?

    Now why can’t our US uniforms look this good? The Canadians have well fitted ones that tend to show off the contours of the figure. Ours tend to use far too much material, are baggy and loose, and makes the person wearing it look ill at ease.
