Since you're wearing a tan suit, go ahead and get some tennis shoes or light weight hikers.

I have these Ferragamo's and some Ermengildo Zegna's (that I couldn't find a picture of) and they both rool. Since you were asking OL, I assumed you wanted to drop some coin. If not, get something similar but less expensive in the same color and style and match them to your belt.

Only a fucking rube with a timeshare would wear pennies with a suit ::nonono:: Those Ferragamos are nice, but not with a suit. Get some Allen Edmonds cap toes, tan, dark brown or chilli. Originally Posted by commonlaw

Yes on brown for the tan suit. I don't dig the euro stuff but if that's your thing you should have the euro cut suit (again, not really my thing). Match the belt of you want but don;t make it look like you bought the belt and shoes together (Or, worse, the belt and the pants. That's like your pocket square and tie matching- horrendous)

I wanna see the tan suit. If it is as I imagine, penniless loafers are awesome if not too chunky. Too Boot NY brown suede lace-ups might work too.
Allen Edmonds are for 50 year old low level financial planners in Omaha. Needs a bit of flair.

Just picked up a pair of these while in Newport (where else?).
Not sure about a tan suit, but these pretty much go with anything.
Flip Flops are fine, but if you want to class it up, but not go full loafer without socks look, you gotta get creative.

I'm well known to be a classless bastard, but I do love my Hugo Boss shoes. I would think that these would work nicely with a khaki suit.

Wait. You're getting married in a khaki suit? In that case you'll probably want these instead:
