Almost every Ninja's cloth (mostly Jounin and chunin gear) have the Uzumaki
clan (red-swirly circlish spiral) on their backs and I've been wondering why
for a while now.

The clan sybol can be seen on the shoulders and the back of the Jonin Flak
jacket. [![enter image description

Since the Uchiha and Senjuu clan founded the hidden leaf, one would expect
that at least one of those clans symbol would be the trademark of the hidden
leaf or maybe even a combination of the 2 clans symbol.

But rather they chose a clan that is affiliated with the land of eddies to be
their symbol? What was the reasoning behind this.

Why is the Uzumaki clan symbol more like a trademark in Konoha


> The Uzumaki, being descendants of Asura Ōtsutsuki, also shared distant blood

> close ties, with members at times marrying between clans, as with Hashirama
> Senju and Mito Uzumaki. Following the founding of Konohagakure at the end of

> friendship by adding the Uzumaki's emblem to Konoha's flak jackets. Konoha
> and the Uzumaki's own Uzushiogakure remained close allies over the following
> decades, with the Uzumaki providing fūinjutsu (among other things) to Konoha
> whenever there was a need.
