Re cold weather gear , Crispus has written an excellent article here http://www.romanarmy.net/coldweather.htm
Re colour (and much else) , I would recommend starting with Roman Military Clothing Vols. 1 and 2, Graham Sumner, Osprey and then move on to Graham's other work.
Socks can be many colours- personally, I use muted earthy colours, but surviving ones from Egypt show multiple colours. Can't find my pic at the moment!
