What Colour Jackets And Coats to Wear with Grey Leggings

The best jacket colours to wear with grey leggings are navy, burgundy and black. Grey and navy are both cool and quiet, a safe office pairing. Olive, dark brown, brown and cream also work. Be careful with khaki: a trench coat is dressier than leggings, so the pairing only works in a deliberately mixed outfit. Colour-wise it works: grey and khaki are both neutral but similar in depth, so the outfit reads soft.
