Does it really matter what style lapel I have on my jacket?
Nope. All three lapel styles that we offer are classic, and can be worn to the most exclusive black tie event. They are as appropriate to wear now as they were fifty years ago. Your lapel style is merely a personal preference. If you are having trouble choosing, keep in mind that the notched lapel is the most popular.
Any advice on single breasted jacket vs. double breasted jacket ?
A double breasted jacket should be buttoned at all times to look appropriate. Also, if you have a short stocky build, it is not as flattering. A single breasted jacket may be more comfortable because you have the option of leaving it opened. Other than that, they are both considered classic styles.
Poly/cotton tuxedo shirt vs. 100% cotton tuxedo shirt?
The difference is very clear. A 100% cotton shirt looks and feels great. For not to much more get the fabric that feels the best. We strongly would recommend the 100% cotton shirt. Although for the price the poly/ cotton will do its purpose.
Winged-tipped collar vs. laydown collar?
Personal preference. No standard in this matter.
Do I really need to wear studs and cufflinks with my tuxedo shirt?
You should always wear a pair of studs and cufflinks when you wear a tuxedo. We have a wide range to choose from, to fit any budget.
What is the difference between "adjustable" and "non-adjustable" tuxedo pants?
Adjustable trousers allow you to adjust the waist size about 2½ inches. The benefit of adjustable is that if you gain or lose weight, you have the option of adjusting the waist yourself. Many of our tuxedo packages include adjustable trousers.
What is the difference between worsted wool, Super 100s wool, Super 110s wool, and Super 120s wool?
The worsted wool tuxedo is the most popular fabric that we sell. Most tuxedos that you see in formalwear shops are made of worsted wool. Worsted wool has 60-75 threads per square inch. The Super 100s, Super 110s and Super 120s contain that many threads per square inch, and therefore they are much softer fabrics. A Super 120 wool tuxedo is simply the best quality tuxedo you can buy.
Do I really need to shell out the scratch for the patent leather shoes?
Patent leather shoes are inexpensive , and really look the best with a tuxedo. Although you could get away with wearing a good clean pair of black leather shoes.
What does "Black Tie" mean when indicated on an invitation?
"Black Tie" on an invitation is an indication that it will be a formal event (tuxedo required). Today, however, black tie does not mean that you have to specifically wear a black tie. Many colors and styles are acceptable.
Do you have any advice on taking correct measurements?
Taking measurements is not as difficult as you may think. You can view our measurement guide for help. That said, tuxedo measurements are no different than that of any other mens suit. We suggest that you try on a suit that fits you well, and place your order using those measurements.Just as a guide, there is usually a 6" difference between the average male chest and waist (i.e. a 42" chest or jacket will usually have a 36" waist). If you have any other questions regarding measurements, please feel free to give us a call.
How do I know if I am a Short, Regular, Long, or Extra Long?
5 feet 4inches to 5 feet 7inches = Short
5 feet 7 1/2 inches to 5 feet 11 inches = Regular
5 feet 11 1/2 inches to 6 feet 2 1/2 inches = Long
6 feet 3 inches and up = Extra Long
Please note that this table is only a guide. For example, quite often a gentleman will be 6 feet tall, and feel more comfortable with a Regular. Always wear what you are most comfortable in.
