Online clothing company The Black Tux was created to offer high-quality yet affordable rental tuxes and other dress clothes. Inspired by the popular subscription box model, this brand offers a modern alternative to shopping for dress clothes from a store.
The brand offers modern suits and tuxes that are made from Italian wool, fit-ordered completely online and delivered to consumers' front door. Depending on the occasion, complete outfits are offered with a two-day try-on policy at home with free replacements if any of the rental tuxes aren't perfect. The idea behind the company is to create the perfect look for any occasion without the large price tag or commitment to a large purchase.
The Black Tux suit and tux rental service is available online now, with prices starting at $95.
