Shoe Colour vs. Suit Colour

There is no right or wrong when it comes to colors of shoes being paired with suits, what matters is what looks good and what doesn’t.  I really think that everything just plays to your personality and your ability to pair things that go well together and the confidence to pull them off.

A pairing of  brown shoes with a navy suit lends a beautiful contrast to the eye that maybe missing when pairing a solid black shoe with a navy suit. it is acceptable and elegant to pair a navy suit with any other color of shoe which will usually make your outfit stand out quite more.

So here are some tips:

  • Black Suits: Pair with  Black or Gray shoes.
  • Navy Suits: You can pair with Brown (any shade), Burgundy, Red,Black shoes etc. The possibilities to what you can pair with navy suits are limitless.
  • Gray Suits: Same things as navy, the possibilities are pretty much endless (depending on the shade of suit). Lighter grays are a bit more versatile, where as charcoal suits head towards the territory of black shoes.

Here are several other pictures to show the different looks in pairing suits with shoes.
