Personally, I would wear grey pants, then black or gray shoes/belt. The belt should always be matched to the shoes.

Colors work but shoes look like boots / chukkas. Not my first choice.

I prefer dress boots or chukkas with khakis. Dress shoes with dress pants.

You’re from Wisconsin, right?

Yep. Let's hear it ...

The OP is wearing a shirt with his company's logo on it, and khakis. Chukkas are fine.

Slowguy

(insert pithy phrase here...)

1. You wear socks with loafers and boat shoes.
2. You get fashion advice from European/British websites.
3. You own some form of skinny or stretch jeans or pants.
4. You tend to call non-jeans casual pants, “slacks.”
5. You think number 3 looks good on you.
6. You own at least one pair of straight front cuffed “slacks.”
7. You think number 6 looks good on you.
8. You believe the marketers who sell “dress boots.”
9. You refuse to acknowledge the truth that dress boots are neither.
10. You have never gotten laid because you wore button fly Levi’s, boat shoes, and a pink button down with sleeves rolled up two turns, no belt, and Ray Ban aviators.

You’ve tasted Zima at least once.

You have a point here.

All the cool guys now seem to wear opposites-black/grey/ blue suit gets brown shoes. You have mixed colors so either works. If in doubt go with black.

With that yellow in the logo I'd go for yellow pants and bright red shoes to rock the Ronald McDonald look.


Either that or I'd go the Grey pants, black shoes, black belt. Grey on black works well.

I'm beginning to think that we are much more fucked than I thought.

Hey, no judgement here ~ We're all getting there eventually, can't afford to be too picky anymore...

Agree. Only time to wear black shoes is with grey, or charcoal, or black pants. Else BDL (bus driver look). Browns are simply more interesting. Does it have to be khakis? The whole Dockers look is just tired. Black shirt can go with anything--you have a yellow logo, can you pull off yellow pants? Trade shows....confidence sells, but there is a fine line there...you don't want to look like a clown. I liked the oxblood recommendation, or go with a saddle with black + oxblood. There is a difference between trade show wear & goto-school wear. Goto school wear, frankly Dockers/khakis are fine b/c really, at that point, WGAF--you are dealing with school administrators who wear Rockports. If you go brown + khakis....I would not go cotton but go wool, though the British Khaki is a good in between in cotton as it is more brown than tan. Shoes with either? Go with Allen Edmonds Strand or better yet the Carlyle. I have a pair of Carlyle with Danite soles that are my goto shoe for a step above business casual. I also have a pair of Badlands that are my winter travel/stand-all-day shoe. Both can by found deeply discounted/seconds/ebay. Problem with both the Badlands & the Carlyle is that it can be tough to match belt. If you go brown croc or even a woven (for casual/school calls), the texture makes the actual color matching much less important.

"There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs." John Rogers

Black shirt can go with anything--you have a yellow logo, can you pull off yellow pants?

I'm sure one of the secretaries would be more than happy to pull off the yellow pants (after she's been overcome by the blue eyes).

Belt should match shoes. I match my watch as well. I will only wear a black strapped watch black belt and shoes. Metal strap watch can go with either black or blue.

With a black shirt, typically black belt and shoes, although, not written in stone.

Y'all just have to bring up a painful memory from my youth. If people think I have poor fashion sense now, it was worse when I was late teens. Living in Florida, I thought I would get some clothes that have summer colors. One such outfit consisted of yellow pants and a bright shirt with a lot of yellow in it. After getting called "banana man" by someone driving by in a car - I retired that outfit. I haven't worn yellow since.

It is still painful, so thanks to everyone who caused that memory to surface. I have to go get counseling now. I guess I'll wear my pink pants and matching pink shirt.

Don't be afraid to try other colors besides pink and yellow!!

Oooh. I like that. The yellow logo would really pop out on that outfit. And, everything matches. I even have some bowling shoes to go with it. Thanks for the idea.
