What Shoes To Wear With Black Pants

Black pants are a wardrobe staple and we think every woman should own a few pairs. They are so versatile, have an innate elegance, can be dressed up or down and come in so many fabrics and profiles. Speaking of different styles of black pants, specific shoe styles are necessary to create a great looking outfit. We did a deep dive into what shoes to wear with black pants work best for different black pant silhouettes. Here’s our round-up of footwear for these looks.

What Shoes To Wear With Black Pants

We found seven categories of black pants that most women have and styled them with some great shoes and boots that we found. Please let us know what your favorites are and if these help.

Black Skinny Pants

Everyone has some form of a black skinny pant and the one we have showed above is the Spanx Ponte Slim Straight Pant. A skinny black pant, while not on the front of current trends, can always be worn in a casual setting.

Black Wide Leg Trouser

These Black Wide Leg Trousers are really having a moment. They are a timeless and classic pant that every women should own- they can take you anywhere. We think a wide leg trouser looks best with a heeled pointed toe dress shoe or boot for an understated sophisticated look and to elongate the leg.

Black Ankle Pant

A black ankle pant looks good styled with flats, loafers and bootie ankle boots. The hem of the ankle pant should be just a bit above the top of the ankle bootie-to show off the look.

Black Faux Leather Pant

This is another wide leg look that we feel looks best with a pointed toe heel. This combination is a look that you could wear to business meetings and a night out.

Black Cargo Pant

A Black Cargo Pant has a very casual look. We found these two pair by Athleta- The Venice High Rise Pant and the Endless High Rise Pant. We feel cargo pants are a seasonless look- pair with sandals in the summer. They also make a great workout pant.

Casual Black Pant

For a casual black pant think Varley. Varley is a brand that has beautiful designs and fabrics. The Varley Wide Leg Pant is great for travel, lounging and living life in. Here is another example of a seasonless pant. We styled with a loafer slide and a fashion sneaker.

Flare Black Pant

There are many black flare pants to chose from -we narrowed it down to Spanx Perfect Fit Ponte Kick Flare– Val has these and loves them. We paired elevated footwear with these flares.
