Brown shoes are an essential part of every man’s wardrobe because of their versatility. Equally diverse is the pair of socks that you can match with brown shoes. The matching possibilities are quite endless, and can be tailored to match the occasion (we’re not saying this just because we’re a sock subscription company...).

Below is a collection of ways in which you can wear your socks with brown shoes.
