Referring to those red fox-hunting jackets as "pinks" raises the
additional question of just what the British historically meant when
they called something "pink."

My boss, an avid hunter, told me that the red fox-hunting
jackets are called pink for a man named Pinkerton. I don't remember
his exact title, Lord Pinkerton, perhaps?
