I'm thinking lighter color summer linen trousers, searsucker suit, jeans and sport coat.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,
Twotone

When I think "seersucker suit" suede shoes come to mind, but I think these would go very well with the rest you suggested.

Up close, the shoe has some surface interest. Is it suede?

If it's not suede, you'll need a Steve Harvey suit.

Steve Harvey, the comedian and clothier. Not Steve Garvey, the baseball player. My bad.

Same thing I would want to know from my wife before answering such a question: Have you made up your mind and are simply looking for validation? If yes, then "They look great and will work well with summer trousers." If you want my actual reaction, then..."they're a little boring for summer linen trousers. I'd take a little more risk."

JMHO.

I think those shoes look a little heavy for linen, they would go great with jeans but nothing too dark or light and maybe a little "dirty" so it as a warmer tone. personaly a slim fit, flat front suit pant, maybe in a light chocolate would go well.
