Black pants with dark brown shoes.

I tried it few times and I am digging it. Anyone else feel the same way??

Ivan Kipling · Jul 31, 2007

Sure.

Tomasso · Jul 31, 2007

I do it with flannel and suede exclusively.

I think it looks cool.

teddieriley · Jul 31, 2007

I do it with brown shoes that are even much lighter - EG Edwardian, Clifford Tan, etc. and I think it looks absolutely fine.

can look really cool especially if matched with belt in the same leather/color

this is standard decadence attire at night.

for me at least.

I like it too, especially with Black socks. I find the lighter the shoe the more fashionable the look.

It works if done well.

Given that have black shoes, I generally would wear black shoes with black pants. Nevertheless, I might wear brown boots with black jeans.

I do like black and tan/camel at night.

It works when done well in a muted ensemble, but it can fall flat, as everyone has said. I think the key is not to have too much contrast, so keep it to a rich, dark brown.

black pants + tan shoes is a classic combo. darker browns, however, do not work as well unless they have some sort of sheen to them i think.

+3 black/ charcoal slacks and tan shoes. Classic! Much better than black and dark brown- not enough contrast.

Agreed! It's a "crazy-sick" look when properly done. However, thought has to be applied; it can't just be thrown together.
