Gents Wearing Red Clothes in Islam
It is makrooh tahreemi (i.e. impermissible and sinful) for men to wear garments that have been dyed with safflower (red colour) or saffron (yellow/orange colour). It is permissible for men to wear clothes that have been dyed with anything other than saffron and safflower regardless of the colour of the garment.
If, however, the garment is plain red and has been dyed with anything other than safflower, then there is a difference of opinion among the Jurists regarding its permissibility for men. The preferred view is that it is makrooh tanzeehi (i.e. disliked and better to avoid, though not impermissible).
Wearing a red cap or a red turban on the head, however, is permissible without any karaaha (reprehensibility or dislike) according to all the Jurists.
The detail above is regarding plain red garments. If the garment is not plain red and has patterns of other colours as well, then wearing it is permissible without any karaaha.
