Luigi also wears clothes similar to Mario, but his shirt and cap are green instead of red. Layered over the shirt is blue overalls, which, starting with ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]'', are a darker blue than Mario's. He also has brown work shoes, again darker than Mario's, with tan bottoms that reach above his ankles. He wears white gloves like Mario. Artwork however sometimes shows Luigi with the same color of blue overalls and brown shoes as Mario. The [[Luigi Cap]] is similar to the [[Mario Cap]], being green instead of red and having an "L" replace Mario's signature "M"; the "''L''" was in italic from ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'' to ''Luigi's Mansion'' for a few years. In some games, Luigi's cap does play some significance, such as in ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', where just like Mario's and Wario's caps, it can be stolen by [[Klepto]] and cause him to take extra damage so long as he is not wearing it. However, this does not occur in other games, such as ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'' and ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]'' after collecting the maximum number of lives.

Artwork for the [[Mario & Luigi (series)|''Mario & Luigi'' series]] up until ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team|Dream Team]]'' consistently depicted Luigi as wearing red-and-white striped socks; this trait is not present in any other games; additionally, the green coloring on his clothing had more of a turquoise/teal color scheme.
The [[Mario & Luigi (series)|''Mario & Luigi'' series]] up until ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team|Dream Team]]'' consistently depicted Luigi with pants short enough to reveal his red-and-white striped socks; though the [[Nintendo 3DS]] remake ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]'' still shows these socks when his shoe falls off at the beginning of the game; additionally, the green coloring on his clothing had more of a turquoise/teal color scheme.


Mario and Luigi's color preferences are reflected throughout the land in the form of various enemies, such as [[Koopa Troopa]]s and [[Cheep Cheep]]s, who also come in red and green varieties. These foes even reflect the brothers' personalities, with red ones being more aggressive and green ones acting cautious. In fact, Mario and Luigi are not the only known red and green brothers, with similarly color-coded siblings including [[Cork and Cask]], the [[Red (Super Paper Mario)|Red]] and [[Green]] bridge guards, the [[Armored Harriers]], Massif Bros., [[Elder Shrooboid|Elder]] & [[Junior Shrooboid]] and [[Jellyfish Sisters|Gigi]] and [[Jellyfish Sisters|Merri]]. When [[Tattle|tattling]] the younger of the Armored Harriers, [[Goombella]] theorizes that it may be some sort of rule that younger brothers must wear green, offering a possible explanation for Luigi's trademark green shirt and cap.
