These. Absolutely not.

Taking back my statement...I was looking at blue suits + brown shoes; big difference

I like it. If you can pull it off nicely then go for it !!!!

Blue and brown...absolutely. Black and brown...doesn't work.

Any other color + brown is nice.
Black and brown doesnt really work for me.

Might.....JUST might work if you are tall and slender and pimpin a Kiton suit with a handmade pair of shoes.
Dont try it if you are short, fat and have a broke ass suit on.

No brown shoes with a black suit. I have a hard time buying things that are black and brown in the same garment, but I'm slowly getting past that.

A week ago i would have said never ever. But after watching this video i changed my mind. That light brown shoe that he wore just look like it worked.



BTW: Aarons videos are FANTASTIC. I definitely recommend subscribing.

Wearing a black shirt with brown shoes is acceptable, as long as your belt is brown also. Wearing brown shoes with a black suit? NO, NO, NO. Matt Lauer wears that combo nearly every day, and it looks terrible. If you have enough money for a nice suit, you should have enough for shoes to properly match.
