Elevate Your Style with Versatile Shades and Styles

Brown shoes are a classic and versatile option that can be worn with a variety of outfits. Brown is a neutral color that comes in different shades, from light tan to dark chocolate, making it easy to find a pair that complements your wardrobe. Brown shoes are available in different styles, including boots, loafers, and dress shoes, making them suitable for various occasions.

One of the benefits of brown shoes is that they can be paired with different colors and patterns. They can be worn with neutral colors, such as white, black, and beige, or paired with bold prints, such as stripes or plaids. Brown shoes can also be used to create a monochromatic look by pairing them with different shades of brown.

Brown shoes are also a great investment for your wardrobe as they never go out of style. They are a classic choice that can be worn for years to come. Brown shoes are also durable and can withstand daily wear and tear, making them a practical choice for everyday wear.

Wondering how to style your brown shoes? Our KURU gurus outline the best ways to wear them below.

  • Go Classy
    Not as formal as black shoes, brown shoes are versatile enough to give you the classy, casual, sophisticated, or relaxed look you want to achieve. For instance, you can sport a Ryan Gosling style with a pin-striped shirt, black pants, brown belt, brown shoes, and of course, your favorite sunglasses.
    Go Classy
  • Go Casual
    If you want a casual yet fresh look, you can never go wrong with a white shirt, blue jeans, and brown shoes. If you like a more sophisticated ensemble, pick a gray and blue-toned outfit, brown shoes, and a brown satchel. Don’t forget your eyeglasses for a smarter look.
    Go Casual
  • Go Edgy
    If you prefer something funky and eye-catching, try wearing red pants, a black and white shirt, and your brown shoes. Women can also pull off an edgy look with a white shift dress, brown leather jacket, and brown boots. A brown midi dress and other neutral colors also look great with brown sandals.
    Go Edgy
  • Go Elegant
    If you love a bolder and more elegant look, wear a colorful suit like orange, brown shoes, and a nice watch. Denim skirts, leggings, flared jeans, and leather trousers also match well with brown shoes.

Shoe Care Tips

Shoe Care Tips

Follow these simple tips to keep your brown shoes looking their best for years to come.

  1. Spray your shoes with a water protectant to prevent possible damage, especially since brown leather shoes or suede shoes are vulnerable when wet. Read and follow the instructions provided on the bottle.
  2. Alternate your pairs of brown leather sandals, brown casual shoes, brown ankle boots, or brown tennis shoes. Rotating them gives them time to breathe, helping increase their longevity.
  3. Don’t forget to clean the insides of your brown shoes. Use alcohol or an antifungal agent like tea tree oil. Avoid splashing, so the leather won’t be stained.
  4. Polish your brown leather shoes to prevent aging, retain shine and suppleness, and spot signs of wear and tear.
  5. Clean your shoes by hand—not with a washing machine. You can also buy a shoe cleaning kit to make the process easier for you.
The Color Psychology of Brown

The Color Psychology of Brown

Learn more about the meanings behind the colors we wear and how we can craft the perfect color palette to accomplish our goals.

While wearing brown loafers, brown leather shoes, brown tennis shoes, or brown boots may seem a daily casual look for you, it pays to know the different meanings associated with the color itself.

For instance, brown often represents resilience, safety, and security. This may be connected to the earthy tones of brown. The color also evokes feelings of warmth and comfort. It does not focus on anything luxurious and rather lets you appreciate the most basic needs, keeping you grounded. While it’s natural and traditional, it can also be sophisticated.

Brown is linked to reliability and strength. It also lets us feel connected to the earth, our history, our home, and our family.

FAQs
FAQs
  • What should I wear with brown shoes?

    You can wear brown shoes with a white shirt and blue jeans for a casual and comfortable look as well as a gray and blue-toned outfit and a brown satchel for a classy and professional look. Red pants or a black and white skirt are perfect for a funky look.

    Women can also experiment with brown shoes and denim skirts, leather trousers, leggings, flared jeans, leather jackets, midi dresses, shift dresses, and more.

  • Can I wear brown shoes with black pants?

    Yes, you can pair your brown shoes with black plants. However, provide contrast by using lighter brown shoes, keep it casual, and pick matching accessories like a brown leather watch or brown bag and belt. Then, wear a white or navy blue shirt.

  • How is the arch support of KURU shoes?

    KURU shoes deliver excellent arch support without the need for thick inserts or expensive, custom orthotics.

    Superior arch support starts with our patented KURUSOLE technology, which delivers natural cushioning and dynamically hugs your heel with every step. Every foot is unique, and our ULTIMATE INSOLES adapt to fit your needs by using your own body heat to custom-mold to the shape of your feet over time.

    The corrective nature of our superior arch support is designed to neutralize your weight distribution and place your foot in the best anatomical position. This support can take some getting used to. We suggest slowly breaking in your new shoes over the course of 2–3 weeks.

  • I just received a pair of your shoes and my feet are sore/hurt after wearing them. Why is that?

    Some customers experience tenderness when they first start wearing a new pair of KURUs. That’s ok! Your body may need time to adjust to the new levels of anatomical support you experience with our patented KURUSOLE technology. Our shoes are also designed to mold to your unique foot shape, which takes a bit of a break-in period.

    To help mitigate this, we suggest you follow our break-in procedure, including wearing your KURUs for a couple hours per day around the house in the first couple of weeks as they break in and form to your foot.

Beautiful sandals. I love my Suomi caramel brown sandals! They are both beautiful and comfortable. I’m a 7.5 in a snarls. I bought the black sandals in a 7 and decided to try an 8 in thes color. I think the 8s are a little more comfortable. I wear these shoes all the time. I have much less foot pain in these shoes. I love how they conform to my foot!”

Great Slippers! I bought a pair of these for myself a few months ago, and then got these for my boyfriend because I liked mine so much and he needed a new pair with support for his back issues. He loves the support and comfort of the padded sole. We had to return for a smaller size, but that was very seamless. And while we were waiting for the new pair, he kept saying that he was excited to get the ones that fit! Overall we’re extremely happy with these slippers. And the brown color is very classy!”

Karina

So comfortable! I’ve had these about 2 weeks now. Still in the break in period, but I love them and know I made the right decision in purchasing these. They are so soft and lightweight. I have heel spurs and there was no pain from the first time I wore them. I have “cankles” and was concerned they may be too tight on my ankles, and although snug for now, they have stretch, which is just awesome! I can’t wait to purchase these in brown, also. Thank you!!”

No more orthodics for me. I have worn custom orthotics all my adult life at least 40 years. I have 2 pair of KURU one black one brown. These are definitely the most comfortable slip on shoes I have ever invested in. AND NO ORTHODICS!!!!”

I LOVE THESE!!! I ordered these for work. I am a nurse and have had terrible knee and back pain recently. I’ve been in the nursing profession for 36 years and these shoes are amazing! I have already ordered a second pair in the brown leather to wear with jeans and casual clothes. My knee and back pain are all but gone! THANK YOU!”
