I think they look good
Into them
Silhouette is real good but I've always been wary of dark brown as a pants color, I feel brown leather shoes don't work as well with them
It works well in tonal fits tho
Yeah I wear black shoes with dark brown pants
good point. Will have to think about it. Originally wanted the blue ones but those are out in my size. I really like the brown but keeping in mind combinations is a good idea
Thanks everyone
Gray and white shoes work well too ofc
I kinda like the combo in the pic as well but those are very different browns
I think the tonal kinda thing going on with the dark brown jacket and taupe hoodie helps with the brown shoes brown pants
chunky black derbies >
If it were an olive barbour instead the color palette would look kinda uninspired imo
Chunky black derbies are always good lol
Need to get me some
Black doc martens could work I think
I love brown pants in the summer with some yellow shirts
Probably my favorite color combo
Black loafs or cream converse
Update: I bought them. Shipping was kinda expensive tough
I just recived thouse trousers. They look and feel pretty nice from first impressions. Not going to wear them atm due to the weather they are relatively heavy. Which is nice for later
Only suprising thing is that there is a label which says made in china but I assume that it refers to the label itself
if they're from the 90s as the description says I wouldn't be surprised at all if the RAF was having uniforms bought in that were made in china 🤷‍♂️
in fact a lot of current british military uniform is made in china
ah ok that makes sense I was just suprised by that
