Any idea black long-sleeves shirt match with which colour for the pants? It's for office wear. How about dark brown or dark grey?

Much appreciate any opinions

dark grey..

IMO black shirts are one of the hardest to match.. you could definitely go with a black pants, but only if u think ur sharp enough to pull it off.. i think khakis would be a good option, and yeah probably dark grey too..

general rule of thumb that your shirt shouldn't be darker than your pants, so it makes for difficult matching with black shirts.

I don't have one black shirt in my closet.

Don't wear black shirts to office. Black shirts are simply not for going to the office. You can wear it to clubs and parties. Or if it has patterns or lines, it will go well untucked for jalan jalan in an aircond place in M'sia. Black shirt with black pant is for funeral or some function with an all black theme. A black shirt with SOME kind of pattern at least will go will with solid grey, jeans. Not too well with beige, unless you have some kind of vest or blazer on. Dark brown depends on your skin color. Brown tends to make some ppl look really old fashioned. Brown's a very hard color.

yah i concur with mumeichan that u shouldn't wear black to office.. it just doesn't look very professional.. i would say u should avoid dark colours for your ofice wear

not really in todays world you can wear khaki coloured pants and make sure you match your pants to your neck tie

i think grey trouser is a good choice

White can also. Direct contrast

actually black shirt with beige color pant looks kinda casual and smart

black pants with Grey color pants

Like everyone said, get a gray smart pants. For a casual look I might go for a dark blue / navy chinos

both is nice and elegant bro.

If you go for black on black, be careful the two blacks match. Not all blacks are the same!
