Grumbler, that's a little clumsy. (and I think you meant OF). We actually don't usually mention color and say "match (one's) clothes" for example: She always matched her shoes to her purses. -or- She and her sister always wore matching clothes. In English, this use of "match" always evokes color.

Да, конечно of
Однако, меня удивляет, что "this use of "match" always evokes color".
Например, IMHO, джинсы и формальный пиджак don't match (многие со мной не согласятся), но из-за стиля, а не цвета. То же самое - кроссовки (даже черные) и формальный костюм.

In that case, we say “jeans and a formal blazer don’t GO TOGETHER”
