Consider: Kakashi sticks to such basic outfits/colors because the Hatake, like dogs, see less colors than (most) humans.
(Gai is banned from being the Advice Person on Kakashi’s shopping trips.)

Kakashi gets Sharingan and just “Wait, this is what purple looks like???”
Skip the superpowers, he can see red
“Rin… your cheek marks are purple?”
“…did you seriously not pay enough attention to our team to know this?”
“This is what purple looks like???”
Kakashi during training just goes up to Minato and Rin like “Is this weird vision thing a ‘Sharingan can see chakra’ thing or is it just… color.”
“Minato still looks the same. Rin looks almost the same. Kushina look–THAT IS VERY RED!”
Kakashi wandering around like 8O
“Oh wow, Gai’s spandex is even worse than I thought.”
Sorry I’m just unnecessarily invested in this like
Immediately
Right out the gate I’m here for “Kakashi didn’t know red, purple, green, or orange until he got Sharingan.“ He just keeps pointing at things like “is that [color]?” Rin finds it adorable.
Like I’m assuming he knew he was colorblind? Just for safety reasons?
Because like. Ninja.
But also he’s so unprepared for colors.
Oh god, Gai is so gosh darn excited about Kakashi being able to see Green, The Most Youthful Of Colors
Kakashi, running his hands over the grass: “It’s beautiful.”
Rin: Is he okay?
Minato: I don’t know, but if he keeps using Obito’s eye, he’s going to get chakra exhaustion again.
Rin: But he’s so happy about color… and he’s going to get all depressed if we don’t give him a distraction from Kannabi…
Minato: Rin, you’re our medic. Do you want to explain to the hospital why Kakashi has chakra exhaustion on your watch again?
Kakashi: I know I’m back in the hospital, but consider this: I just discovered purple.
