Then I must have missed the memo because to me, it makes more sense to wear black or gray shoes with that color suit. Brown clashes------badly.

Grey shoes? Yeah, you missed the memo.

Black shoes are somewhat acceptable with a navy suit, but a rich, dark brown is preferable. The more formal the occasion or in the evening, the darker the brown.

The same goes for grey suits, although black shoes are a little more common in that instance.

That's like saying I'm wearing a tan suit today, let me wear my blue suede shoes with it.

Tan suits are casual and would typically only be worn in a daytime setting. In that instance, a navy suede shoe would be appropriate and also look fantastic. As with anything, it has to be the right blue though.

*I* probably wouldn't go that route with a tan suit, but if I was wearing earth tone or white 5-pockets and a tan based jacket, I'd rock some navy suede loafers or drivers in a heartbeat.
