Grey merino jumper with tan chinos

A grey merino crew-neck jumper gives tan LUCA chinos a cooler-toned partner. This KnowledgeCotton Apparel pairing is a straightforward smart-casual base for a relaxed office or a weekend lunch. The contrast between grey and tan makes each piece readable while leaving you room to choose either dark or light footwear.

Why it works

Cool grey balances the chinos' warm tan shade, giving two plain pieces a clear colour relationship.
The crew neck keeps the outfit simple and leaves the trouser shape visible.

How to wear it

Try a small front tuck if you want to show the waistband and define the silhouette.
Brown shoes would echo the chinos; plain white trainers would give the pairing a lighter finish.
