Poll: Black suit, brown shoes.

[Efour]

Is this combo possible yet for a non Italian Stallion like myself?

I've got a wedding to attend and i'm starting to think about clothes.

I know this topic comes up often but fashions change...

I have size 14.5 feet and im not in the mood to spend a ton on a pair of shoes that will get little wear.

Poll option if possible ?

Yes
No
couple of other FOTM funny options.

Thank you.

Personally, nope

No! Especially with your clown feet they will stand out a mile.

Invest in a decent pair of black shoes and look after them when not using so you will always have them whenever needed.

Navy suit would be better for brown shoes tbh. Sprezzatura is, ironically, incredibly difficult to pull off.

This actually drives me mental, why do people think they can cross blues/blacks/browns? Red & green?

Brown shoes are never appropriate for formal occasions.

It is nothing to do with fashion.

Invest in some Black shoes...

Only suit colour that I find goes even slightly with brown shoes is Grey

 

[dirtychinchilla]

I'd wear them with a grey suit.

Why did you buy a black suit without suitable shoes?

How did you manage to get this far in life without the above?

Brown suit, black shoes.

Maybe if i spend the money on a grey suit instead

What about brown shoes with brown trousers?

 

[postbox]

No to black suit brown shoes, but certain blues and greys work very well with brown shoes.

My informal wear in the office is a grey suit, white shirt, no tie and brown shoes.

I would wear black shoes with the above, but not brown shoes with black. It just doesn't work I'm afraid.

 

[panthro]

Buy a new pair of black shoes.

Or belts, jackets etc.

Just wrong.

That'd look better.

 

[MisChief]

I think you've got your answer OP

You might be able to pull it off... Maybe try wearing a brown tie and brown belt as well?

That's big feet you have there.
