A good friend of mine died about 10 years ago now. His wife insisted his friends wear Hawaiian garb to his funeral AND drink a few beers for him in the parking lot. This guy wore Hawaiian shirts, shorts and flipflops whenever he could. We were really shocked when we got there in our Hawaiian outfits he was dressed in a suit. I think his mother (who was still alive at the time) wanted him in a suit.
We did pop a few beers for him in the parking lot.

I am the shoe czar of the OT. Do not wear brown shoots with your black suit. That will look awful. ^^^This. Learn to dress yourself or marry someone who will tell you what to wear. For the funeral, wear what you think the deceased would want you to wear.

Wear the nicest of what you own. Funerals are not for the deceased.

Paying respect to one whom has passed has no dress code. You being there is what counts.
