id go with dark brown if you have to, preferably suede, but thats just my opinion bear in mind.

Does it have to be dark brown or tan? Sand sort or colours will look good with most denim (not grey)

pics?

i wouldn't try for an all-purpose shoe, it can't be done. would match to whatever denim you wear the most, and get more shoes to go with the rest.

not my cup of tea, but think the dark browns would be easier to carry off.

i dont think leather looks very good with denim, again only my opinion and as noble here says suede look loads better with denim, clarks desert trek, wallabees, anything like that over leather brogues
