Jambo Ell Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 If they're extremely dark brown shoes (almost black in appearance) then you might pull it off. But no to any other shade of brown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sawdust Caesar Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 Only if you wear white socks as well. A paisley tie will set your look off just nicely;) Or better still, a cartoon character tie and matching socks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legend Claws Posted October 13, 2008 Author Share Posted October 13, 2008 Right thanks. Reason being I don't have to wear a suit for my job but have a thing coming up that I must wear a suit for. Only suit I have is black and only smart shoes I have are a fairly dark brown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darren Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 I don't think there's much wrong with it provided the shoes are a dark shade. Then again I'm hardly a male fashionista. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan_R Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 I bought a suit the other week. Thinking it was black. Actually turns out it was very dark brown. Looks kack with my black shoes/tie. As a result havn't wore it yet. Overall very nice suit but I fear it will go to waste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DETTY29 Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Never brown with black, but brown shoes with a grey suit is fine. Apparently your shoes should never be a lighter colour than suit/dress trousers. So it's a no..no Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
