I’m not really big on bold colors because I’m neither confident nor comfortable with them. On the opposite hand, the reverse combination of darker shoes with a lighter suit or pants doesn’t apply the same way, as the eye is drawn to light more than dark. Combine that with “fun socks” and we’re experiencing a strange fetish where men seem to crave a lot of attention for their ankles and feet – a curious phenomenon since feet are generally regarded as one of the least attractive features of the body. When I see a guy in light brown shoes, my eye goes right to his feet. For me, the rule is simple: except for sneakers, the shoes should always be darker than (or as dark as) the pants.īut here we are, in a mode where many men don brown shoes that are a whole family of shades lighter than their pants. A lot of men choose a shade of brown that is too light or a shade that completely contrasts the fabric with which it’s worn. The big mistake I see men make when jumping on the brown shoe train is with the shade of brown. Black, or even very dark shades of brown or burgundy, is apparently just too serious, as if being perceived as serious is scary. When men – particularly younger ones – pick a shoe to wear with a suit or dressier pants, the go-to is all about brown.
