Must the belt color match with the shoe color for casual wear? I have one natural tan color belt right now, and a few leather shoes that aren't the same color as the belt.

Same color? Yes.
Same shade? Not necessarily.

I don't like it to be too perfectly matchy matchy. The colors shouldn't clash, but I mix shades of brown when they compliment one another.

I prefer a close match between the shade of the belt and the shoe. Sometimes they match exactly, sometimes not. For me, it depends on how it highlights the entire outfit.

hello

Yes,
Color matching must be there just to give unique as well as eye catching personality if you are having the same color of best and shoe its well and good to use that and also you can use cross matching of this color both are the best way but use some different color each and every time also the design of belt make effect I would like to suggest one link for the same matter hope it will help you.

Thank you Hotbuckles Inc.
