Is it bad if your tie, shoes, and belt all match?

Why stop there? There could be a lively market in preppy circles for striped repp shoes. And don't forget the virtues of grenadine oxfords when travelling.

Thom Browne would approve, with the repp stripes on some Black Fleece shoes.

Hi, if someone has green shoes and tie, should he wear it together?

@Orsini thank you, I was just wondering because green is a unique colour, and in the book " style and the man " by Alan Flusser, he stated in the Ankle decor section, " The prize for the most soigne of modern ankle veneer must go to the milanese, who will anoint their charcoal suit trouser and dark brown brogues with bottle green hose, reminding the observer that their choice of a dark green necktie was no accident. " Therefore I was wondering if a pair of patina bottle green shoes would go well with the same colour tie, with say maybe a dark navy/electro blue suit.
