Navy Blue Suede Chukka

[patrickbateman]

Anyone out there own some dark blue suede or polished chukkas? What color pants do they match well with?

I really have my eye on Church's Sahara boots and am pretty keen on the blue ones. i can usually envision what goes with what, but not sure how versatile these would be. I mean, i'm sure they'd look pretty good with certain jeans, and certainly some brown chinos, but what else? maybe grey dress pants as well?

i work in an industry where you can certainly get away with some casual dress, so was thinking these might work with with certain suit pants or with jeans and a blazer.

part of the problem is i can only see these online so can't gauge just how dark they actually are in person and don't want to make a $350 mistake!

any feedback is appreciated!

It is not most favourite pair in my shoes. I seldom use this footwear. But it is very subjective.

I have 2 pairs in suede. The last one from Lodger. I do not wear them very often. They work well with green cords, cotton red& burgundy chinos, grey or light blue jeans, etc.

Thanks! I'd say those look very handsome with jeans and not too over the top at all. That said, i am looking for a boot that i'll be wearing quite often and not sure that i want to be known as Mr. Blue Boots. I think i'll put the big bucks into more neutral chukkas and maybe pick up some less spendy blue ones to have on hand for certain occasions.

Thanks gang - glad to see this is such an active forum!

Church's Sahara are probably the best looking casual chukka but for this kind of unusual colour I agree with you, it's preferable to go cheaper
