What Colour Shoes to Wear with Black Puffer Jacket

The best shoe colours to wear with a black puffer jacket are black, white and grey. Black with black is a classic, unbroken line; vary textures (leather, knit, satin) so it doesn't flatten. Cream, brown, tan and burgundy also work. Be careful with dark brown: loafers are dressier than a puffer jacket, so the pairing only works in a deliberately mixed outfit. Colour-wise it works: black and dark brown are both neutral but similar in depth, so the outfit reads soft.
