I find it interesting that none of the Robins have tried the actual color scheme of their namesake.
The Red Robin outfit is the closest to the color of the bird.
Brown isn't the best color for a costume.
The Red Robin outfit converts nicely.

They have. Robin's namesake is Robin Hood, not the bird.

Suuure it is, and Batman is named after the founder of Australia.

Do some actual research before you talk out of your ass. Robin Hood was an extremely popular character at the time and they were trying to capitalize on it.
"I came up with Robin Hood because The Adventures of Robin Hood were boyhood favorites of mine. I had been given a Robin Hood book illustrated by N. C. Wyeth ... and that's what I quickly sketched out when I suggested the name Robin Hood, which they seemed to like, and then showed them the costume. And if you look at it, it's Wyeth's costume, from my memory, because I didn't have the book to look at."
-Jerry Robinson, co-creator of Robin

The 1938 Robin Hood film supposedly helped inspire the outfit, but I'm not seeing it any more than Peter Pan would have been an influence.

Or in other words, this was almost Batman and Robin!

How many blue, grey and yellow bats have you seen?

I'm surprised they didn't give him a bow and arrow
