The aim is to avoid extremes, such as suit pants that are too shortwhich makes pants look like they don't fitor excessively longwhich leads to a baggy look

And brown shoes go fine with brown trousers because while the color is similar, the difference in materials between trousers and shoes is enough to visually differentiate the two (unless someone is wearing leather pants, but Ill assume that excludes most Permanent Style readers.) I would personally favour an oxblood (close to Horween colour 8) or navy pair, also I think most suedes would work in any colour for a more casual look, with black suede registering less formal than black calf etc

30" from shoulder to hemline

So for example, a shoe like the one shown in the post with some dark and some light brown in it
