What Colour Shoes to Wear with Camel Overcoat

The best shoe colours to wear with a camel overcoat are dark brown and black. Camel and dark brown are both earth tones with enough difference in depth. Brown, burgundy, white and navy also work. Be careful with grey: sneakers are more casual than an overcoat, so the pairing only works in a deliberately mixed outfit. Colour-wise it works: camel and grey are both neutral but similar in depth, so the outfit reads soft.
