How to choose shoes to match a gray suit? Mainly color choices, and points in two categories: leather shoes and sneakers!

Along with navy suits, the “gray suit” is the most popular choice for business suits. What kind of shoes do you usually wear with a gray suit? In this issue, we will explain the points to consider when choosing shoes to go with a gray suit!

Two colors of leather shoes go with gray suits: black and brown! Black for a stoic look, brown for a glamorous look

First of all, since the gray suit is the royal road of men’s suits, it is a straightforward matter to choose shoes in the color of the royal road as well. Black leather shoes in the same monotone color will give a stoic and formal impression, while brown leather shoes will add warm colors to a colorless suit style and give a glamorous impression. If you have to choose between the two, a gray suit and black shoes is the way to go. Navy suits, which are considered a standard men’s suit as well as gray suits, on the other hand, brown shoes are considered the most popular choice.

There are three main tones of gray suits! You should choose the color and tone of shoes to match the color of each.

First of all, it is safe to say that gray suits can be divided into three main tones. In order from darkest to darkest, they are dark gray (charcoal gray), medium gray, and light gray. Shoes to match these have their own colors and tones that go well with each, so we will introduce them here along with actual examples of how they are worn.

(1) Dark gray suits

Black leather shoes are recommended to match with dark gray suits. Straight tips for formal occasions, plain toes for slightly casual occasions, and leather shoes such as wingtips and tassel loafers for casual occasions go well together. If brown shoes are to be worn, dark brown ones are the right choice to match the tone of the gray suit. If you choose a light brown color that is almost beige, it will look out of place with the color of the suit and the styling will not be smart. It is important to match the color system and tone.

(2) Medium gray suit

Medium gray suits are also basically worn with black leather shoes. This is also true for the light gray suit introduced next, but since black shoes have no concept of tone, they match the tone of all gray suits, unlike brown shoes. Therefore, you can be sure to wear black shoes with a gray suit. What you need to be careful about is when you wear brown shoes, because there is the concept of tone, so you should choose shoes that match the color of the suit. For a medium gray suit, brown or dark brown with just the right lightness, not too bright, is a good match.

(3) Light gray suit

Finally, the light gray suit, as you may have guessed by now, matches with black shoes or light brown shoes if brown. Black shoes will quickly tighten the light gray outline of the suit, while light brown leather shoes will give the whole outfit a glamorous look. Of the three tones of gray suits, this light gray is perhaps the most difficult.
