Would it look off due to texture or the sorts to pair worsted flannel pants with a woolen flannel jacket?

I would say it depends also on color combination and other aspects, but I always liked the navy flannel/grey flannel look. I even do worsted on worsted: I have a navy worsted flannel DB jacket (11oz lumbs golden bale) which is a more delicate twill and a charcoal worsted flannel (14oz 2080 vintage flannel) which is double milled but the twill is a bit more prominent. I was inspired by this photo of Caraceni's (Carlo Caraceni in the middle).

It's a darker grey worsted and I'm just thinking to get a woolen flannel DB jacket. That is a slick fit, the colours are actually very similar, but yeah the pants are worsted and jacket to be woolen. I'm just thinking it will probably go well enough together they're probably similar enough.

I hate to burst your bubble, but that man is wearing oxford shoes.
