Brown shoes can be worn with suits or slacks that are brown, tan, navy, olive or even gray. However, we do not recommend pairing your brown shoes up with black slacks or a full black suit. Brown shoes are less formal that black shoes and can be used to add flare. There are many different options for brown shoes. We recommend getting a light and a dark pair to start off. When NOT to wear brown shoes…at a funeral.
