Pairing the perfect belts and shoes for men

Forget the staid black loafers and monochrome belts – fashion houses are now exploring with texture, color and avantgarde details in men’s accessories.

Many designers make it easy for men to find complementary belts and shoes, with matching accessories in a given collection often being created entirely with a single type of material or design. However, more adventurous stylists can take a different approach, finding an accessory pair to bring out a notable quirk or artistic detail in a piece.
