Leather jacket and a matching pair of shoes/boots

[high-maintenance]

I'd say burgundy is a good choice. It goes well with everything

could be... maybe Alden cordovan burgundy???

I usually find that a rough approximation between colours or a mid-point colour looks best to me. I would feel really-self-coscious wearing a cordovan jacket with shoes/boots of the same colour- I normally wear either tan chukkas or a bashed-up pair of brown DMs with it. I reckon a pair of tan Loakes can go ok with brown, too. With black, I wear either seal brown Blundstones or the aforementioned DMs (they're chelsea boots)- but, as my black Stockman is gradually fading to brown, I think it works.

How about these beauties together?

Very tempting. I didn't know Alden made black indy, not to mention the cordovan version!

I'll definitely look into it. Thanks.

Just my opinion

Shoes and belt should compliment (not necessarily match) each other in colour and formality ie: shinny or matte. You don't wear a shinny dress belt with casual shoes or boots.

Jacket should be of the same formality in whatever colour.

When I had black leather jackets I wore either black or brown shoes or boots; same with the belt. Didn't bother me if they clashed. Nowadays I no longer own black leather jackets nor black footwear. I have two brown leather jackets with which I wear brown boots or shoes and brown belts. Deduce what you will out of that!

I'm lucky to get two matching socks together let alone a jacket and boots. I say wear what you want, be it matching or not, tucked or untucked etc...

Thanks for the info.
That tanker looks outstanding.
It's a shame that they are not my sizes.

I'm thinking of getting a pair next time I visit NY city.
cordovan Chukka or standard indy...

That sebago goes well with the jacket!
