rasta colors

Jamaican flag hues

Rasta colors are the red, gold (or yellow), and green associated with Rastafarian culture and the Ethiopian flag.

The combination appears on clothing, accessories, and artwork, often alongside imagery of Bob Marley or cannabis leaves: a beanie in rasta colors, rasta-colored wristbands.

The colors carry pan-African symbolism but are frequently used decoratively without religious intent.
