I think it would look great with navy.

you can wear with navy suit if you really want but I would say burgundy is going to look a bitbetter

Someone please help with enabling: I have a chance to pick up a pair of suede Arrans. Should I go for it? I previously had Wallis in polo suede and didn't wear them much, but the Arran looks sufficiently different to me.

I agree with this, navy is not the best option, wear instead a lighter shade of blue. Burgundy is the right complement to navy. In general I would prefer earthy tones to pair with cherry, besides grey in light to medium shades.

Arran is great, unlined quarters make it super comfortable

Probably heresy, but I would be tempted to wear them with navy suit trousers on days in the office when I have no client meetings.

Suede chukka can work with suits if you ask me, though probably suit with a bit more texture

Yes, I’m thinking dark brown suede with nailhead or basket weave navy.

Vintage cherry aside, is an adalaide oxford like this from G&G supposed to work with jackets and trousers/chinos? Or should I just stick with suits?

clee1982 · 2024-04-23T08:11:40-0700

some would say oxford is suit only but these days who cares I suppose

I sure think they will work nicely with jackets/ chinos/ jeans. That style of semi-brogue is versatile IMO and the punching brings the shoes into the casual realm. I would not wear with shorts though. Lol.

I often wear oxfords with jeans and chinos . My preference is to keep my black shoes for suits but any other colour , I wear with casual trousers as well as formal pants.
