They insist on the facist inspired wardrobe because like it or not...the Red Skull's original origins tie into being a member of a facist group. Marvel can retcon things all they like, but the original stories had the Red Skull as being personally recruited and trained by Hitler himself, eventually becoming the Fuhrer's right hand man and the leader of his elite terrorist cells.

The pleated pants (also known as Jodhpurs) that the figure is wearing has been a staple look for military dress for dozens of the world's military forces outside of Nazi Germany, including France, Italy, Great Britain, Japan, the Soviet Union, China, and even the United States. The look stemmed way before Hitler and the birth of modern facism, and is one that still endures today with many nations.
