Can I wear these with black clothes?

I need comfy work shoes. I attend a lot of conferences where I'm on my feet 12+ hours a day. I work in tech so trainers are fairly widely accepted but I still want to look put together.

I saw these on another thread and they're just what I am looking for: https://www.cos.com/en-gb/women/accessories/shoes/trainers/product/minimal-suede-trainers-black-1262817001

However I don't like the black version as much as I LOVE the cappuccino. But would the cappuccino go with black clothes? My main go-to work outfits are black shirt dresses or black wide leg trousers with different colour blouses.

I need to buy black don't I 😥

Bonus point for a cheaper dupe!

I was expecting a darker brown for ‘cappuccino’ but I think these could work with the right style of black trousers. Not sure about a dupe as such. Possibly puma? They sort of remind me of the Nike Cortez but they’re probably too casual.

Cappucino -no problem with black trousers.

With black dress? I'm trying to get past the fact I'm not keen on trainers with dresses at all but I have 2 pairs of ballet pumps in a similar which I wear with black dresses.
