What Colour Jackets And Coats to Wear with Olive Wide-Leg Pants

The best jacket colours to wear with olive wide-leg pants are navy, beige and black. Olive and navy are both muted, so they sit together without competing. Camel, khaki, grey and dark brown also work. Be careful with light blue and denim blue: a denim jacket is more casual than wide-leg pants, so the pairing only works in a deliberately mixed outfit. Colour-wise it works: olive is a neutral, so it lets light blue be the accent without clashing.
