Hi all,

I recently purchased this tweed jacket. I'm looking for inspiration on what to wear with it. Will these trousers work with this jacket?

If not what would you suggest? I've not yet purchased any grey flannels. Considering purchasing these: https://www.peterchristian.co.uk/grey-flannel-trousers/
Thanks for your help

Tweed is quite versatile, you can dress it up or down although of course it will always be less formal than a worsted suit. Those trousers would be fine for a more formal look, but also just khaki chinos or green cords or even dark indigo jeans will work. The general idea is to choose trousers in contrasting colors, although I wouldn’t call that a hard rule.

I see, that makes sense. Thanks for the advice!
