Thanks for the input.To me it got at least two issues. One is that these colors look best with colors other than black(e.g. burgundy would look better with navy/blue). Two, if you go with black trousers and dark/black jacket(I imagine black suit most likely) your shoes are lightest/brightest of the three, which is rarely a good look in classic menswear.
Another thing perhaps is that black usually goes with evening wear and loafers go with daytime low-formality ensemble. Not sure that mixes well, outside of maybe black loafers(which have their own problems but still easier to pull with black imo).

Wow, such fascinating pockets! What do you put, a gun in there? Mind saying who made it?
