Don't worry about ordering online instead of in store

By Anthony A., Florida, Verified Reviewer

Easy ordering process, quick delivery with plenty of time for free exchanges, and the quality of the garments is much nicer than MW (thicker and more luxurious feeling). We looked good!

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Awesome tux. Awesome service.

By Greg I., Charlotte, NC, Verified Reviewer

The Black Tux did an outstanding job at streamlining the entire process from online ordering to shipping your box back. The tux was awesome! I would highly recommend this company to anyone in need of a tux. I will definitely be using them again.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

The perfect fit.

By Alex F., Chicago, IL, Verified Reviewer

Finding a tux has always been difficult for me. I am a big guy, it's either too big or too small and uncomfortable, but this time it was perfect. I recommend this service to everyone, especially if you are a big and tall guy like me.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Excellent customer service via telephone

By Stacey S., Georgia, Verified Reviewer

Customer service via telephone was awesome. Suits were very nice. Sizing was accurate for the most part. Replacement shirt was sent right away, again, after excellent customer service via telephone.

Try it to believe it - flawless

By Teddy B., Nashville, TN, Verified Reviewer

I would recommend The Black Tux to all my friends and will use it for my own wedding someday. My suit fit great, it arrived on time, the instructions were clear, and it was so easy and hassle-free. Also, their customer service was INCREDIBLE. Thank you to the CSR I spoke with, Storm, because she treated me like a caring person and not just a number. She even waited on the phone with me for ten entire minutes while waiting to speak to a FedEx representative. They’ll stop at nothing to make sure you have a five-star experience.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Great service!

By Hallie H., San Francisco, CA, Verified Reviewer

My friend chose The Black Tux as the suit provider for his wedding party. As a woman who wears masculine clothing, I was worried about the fit of the suite not "working" for my body type. After one round of sending the suit back for another size, the fit was fantastic and we all looked sharp. Additionally, they were very flexible with my returning the suit slightly later than the 2-day window due to my travel plans.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

High quality and REALLY convenient

By Ryan S., Massachusetts, Verified Reviewer

My suit arrived exactly on schedule, which i knew would happen because BlackTux sent the tracking code for the package. Everything fit great. The suit was of very high quality. I usually wear J Crew, Brooks Brothers, and Hugo Boss and it seemed to be in line with the J Crew Italian wool suits. The shoes were a little big, but better too big than too small. No belt, but that was fine. Free socks were a nice touch. Then to just throw it all back in a box and leave it at the front desk of the hotel to mail - totally easy. I don't rent suits often, but I would highly recommend this if you need everyone to look the same, or maybe look better than they would if they picked their own outfit!

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Great service, highly flexible!

By Patrick B., Salem, MA, Verified Reviewer

Suits are shipped in a great box, shoes were highly shined, and exchanges/alteration issues were handled quickly and cleanly. My groomsmen and I looked fantastic. Returns were easy with the well thought out packaging.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

The best choice. The only choice.

By Joe D., Wexford, PA, Verified Reviewer

I first chose The Black Tux when I was a groomsman in my friend Jeff's wedding. I wore that suit and felt like James Bond. During that day, I was texting the girl who became my wife on September 1, 2018. I sent her the picture of me in that tux and knocked her off her feet. Needless to say, I wouldn't choose any other company, and I was not disappointed. My pictures all turned out incredible, and I am happy to send links (we had a great photographer and the pictures are really fun). The customer service is incredible, the suit quality is untouchable, and the entire process is so seamless.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Great product and great service

By Matt M., Hattiesburg, MS, Verified Reviewer

My good friend from graduate school got married recently. His bride-to-be set up everything via The Black Tux and all we had to do was input our sizes by clicking the mouse button. It couldn’t have been an easier process! Everything was done in a first-class manner. Clothes fit to size and were delivered in a timely fashion. I hope this company has success.

Easy and Simple Wedding Attire

By Zachary K., Denver, CO, Verified Reviewer

All of my groomsmen and I looked great on my wedding day. Black Tux took what is normally a stressful part of wedding planning and made it easy. Even when one of my guys didn't order the right size jacket for himself, they had the replacement out to him immediately.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Great experience

By Patrick W., Cincinnati, OH, Verified Reviewer

I was referred to The Black Tux by a friend for my daughter's wedding. I own a tux but didn't want to wear my classic black tuxedo and I didn't want to purchase a new tuxedo for what I considered would be a one time use. The wedding party was wearing navy blue suits, so I selected a midnight blue tuxedo. It showed up and the 42' coat was a little small so I contacted them and they sent out a 44' coat. The sleeves were a little long on the 44' and they gave me the option of sending it back to have them tailor it or to tailor it here locally. I had the sleeves shortened an inch locally and the tuxedo fit perfectly.

I received a ton of compliments on the tux at the reception and the wedding. I simply put it back in the box it came in and mailed it back two days after the wedding. Great experience and will definitely use The Black Tux again!

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

If you don't use The Black Tux, you're making a mistake!

By Casey B., New York, NY, Verified Reviewer

Hi.

Prefacing this, I am an event planner but this was for my own wedding! This is not an ad nor is there any incentive for me to post this, just thought I would share.

I had my wedding in mid-September. My husband had 12 groomsmen - a bug group of goofballs! They all ordered their tuxes - the site made it SO easy! I clicked what I wanted then just entered their emails. They got an email and all they had to do was follow the measurement prompts and pay. It was so easy, I was actually nervous something was wrong! Two weeks before the wedding the tuxes came in. Some were a little off, and some were perfect. The ones that were a little off, the groomsmen easily sent back with their comments (with the provided mailing label), and a new one was overnighted to them. IT WAS SO EASY!

Side note - the ties I picked for them came in a different color than I was expecting and I hated them. I reached out to the black tux, and they overnighted me 12 new ones - they’re AMAZING!

The day of the wedding came, and this group if 12 goofy misfit groomsmen looked SO FREAKING GOOD!

The suits fit so great and they looked so polished!

I can't recommend this company/service any higher!

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

A lot of extra work required

By Jennings G., North Carolina, Verified Reviewer

Overall, the suit fit nice. It was a pretty good experience getting the suit and just letting it guess the measurements worked out well. However, the biggest downfall was that the suit was ridiculously wrinkled! Thankfully someone had a steamer, but all the groomsmen and groom had to steam their suits the day of the wedding, which was not convenient.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Great customer service

By Ron L., Florida, Verified Reviewer

The Black Tux did everything they could to ensure my issue was resolved 150%. I would definitely use them again. The product was high quality, good shipping information and tracking and items matched the photos perfectly. I am very satisfied.

Great experience

By Kevin W., Richmond, VA, Verified Reviewer

I used The Black Tux for a suit for my daughter's wedding at her recommendation. The experience was wonderful. It was easy to pick your sizes, and the clothing came on time as stated. I had a couple of pieces that were not the right size, and it was easy to return them and get new sizes. After the event was over, I just put everything in the box and shipped it back! Very easy. Quality clothing. They also sent me a replacement pair of shoes when the ones I first received came with black scuff marks on them in several spots. Very good experience.

Exceeded expectations

By Dwayne W., Iowa, Verified Reviewer

When the groom wanted to rent suits, as the father of the bride I was hesitant. But after working with The Black Tux, I would highly recommend it. The suits were beautiful and looked so perfect for my daughter's wedding. All the suits fit perfectly and we even ran into a few issues after the wedding and the customer service staff were great to deal with. If you are on the fence, I would definitely recommend you use this company.

Convenient. Excellent service.

By S R., Washington DC, Verified Reviewer

The Black Tux offers convenient ordering and return. The tux was well made and looked great. Ordering through The Black Tux worked very well for our last-minute need for a tux! I placed the order about two weeks before the event. The tux arrived quickly. Customer service was excellent. Questions on returning the items were promptly and courteously addressed.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Order early for optimal service

By Jeff P., Los Angeles, CA, Verified Reviewer

I needed a groomsman suit, and the groom pointed us towards The Black Tux. This was my first experience with them, but it definitely won't be my last.

Once I created a profile with the event details, I was sent an email reminding me of the last date I could order the suit and still have time to make any adjustments.

I received the suit in the mail, tried it on, and needed to make some fit changes. The Black Tux sent a replacement jacket right away, and I had everything I needed in time for the event.

Customer service was extremely prompt and professional. I couldn't be happier with my experience with The Black Tux.

Great experience

By Eduardo R., New York, Verified Reviewer

Great experience. Straightforward, contemporary black tux without being too trendy (perfect for just trying to blend into a wedding party). It fit just as my own tux did off the shelf prior to body-specific tailoring. I would use it again.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Why would you rent from anyone else?!

By Larry D., Pasadena, CA, Verified Reviewer

Fabulous! The fit is so much better than other rental places - pants were great, and the shirt made me feel like a million. Receiving the rental at home rather than picking it up is wonderful. Getting the rental 14 days prior is phenomenal. Having three days afterward to return the rental is a luxury. Returning it in the same box without going into a store is a treat.

So I ask again, why would you rent from anyone else?

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Simple. Convenient. Great fit and service.

By Neil H., Virginia, Verified Reviewer

My son's wedding in September 2018 was my first experience with The Black Tux, and I look forward to any and all future uses of The Black Tux that may come my way. The Black Tux email communications were timely and easy to understand and the ordering process was simple. My call to their phone reps to ask a question about sizing was handled by a well-trained person who gave me great advice on the size of jacket I should order based on their recommendation, which differed from my suit purchases. The tux arrived exactly two weeks ahead of time and fit great. Most of the wrinkles came out after a couple of days of hanging. The return box and process was convenient and easy and was especially appreciated because the wedding was two hours away from where I live.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Great, order early.

By Zack F., Ithaca, NY, Verified Reviewer

A very cool premise and easy-to-use site. Be sure to order early and try on immediately. Of nine people (eight groomsmen and groom), one did not have to request a different sized jacket. Also, it would be helpful if the size of the clothes were listed on the clothes.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

The Black Tux, why not?

By Aleigh M., New York, Verified Reviewer

From the very moment the suit arrived, I was impressed. Starting with the packaging. The overall quality and fitment of the suit was bang on target! It was a head turner look! I would highly recommend renting from The Black Tux. They're the best!

The Black Tux is the go-to style for men

By Derek J., Laurel, MD, Verified Reviewer

The Midnight Blue Shawl Tux looked nice in pictures but was even more impressive on the groomsmen. It stood up all day from 2 pm to midnight. Everyone wanted to snap a picture of them. One person even commented that they looked good enough to be in a photo shoot. Just as important was the Fit Guarantee and the ease in returning the merchandise even though one person "accidentally" threw his box away. The customer service worked above and beyond the call of duty to make the wedding a success. So who says that it's just the bridesmaids who rock? Groomsmen now have a way to level the male-glam playing field with a modern design look at an affordable price with "The Black Tux."

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Awesome as always

By Vance B., St. Petersburg, FL, Verified Reviewer

I have used The Black Tux on multiple occasions and the fit has always been good, and when it wasn't, replacement items were shipped fast and fit great. I would definitely use again and would recommend others to do so.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Not to be trusted for your tuxedo needs

By David B., Massachusetts, Verified Reviewer

I rented five tuxedos, totaling over $900, for my wedding. Several groomsmen were traveling from out of state or country, so they shipped their tuxedos to my address. The Black Tux mistakenly sent two tuxes of my size. I was, therefore, one tuxedo short for my groomsmen, with the missing tux being for one groomsman who is significantly larger than me. There was no way for him to fit in a slim fit tux my size. This was not a small mistake. My groomsman has 100 lbs on me. He was fit by a professional tailor and input his measurements correctly into The Black Tux site. We called The Black Tux, but they said they could not help with short notice, even though the mistake was theirs by their own admission.

We scrambled to rent a tuxedo right before the wedding. Fortunately, we eventually found one. However, we could not find a perfect match for our Black Tux tuxedos. The replacement was more expensive than The Black Tux tuxedo. So now I spent more than $1100 on tuxedos for my wedding, and we didn't even match thanks to The Black Ttux.

After the wedding, I finally got in touch with a manager at The Black Tux after several failed attempts. I asked The Black Tux to refund the extra cost of the more expensive replacement tux ($200 vs. $132 at the black tux). The Black Tux refused. Clyde and Kevin at The Black Tux customer support admitted fault, but were unwilling to make this problem caused by The Black Tux right.

In an attempt to appease me, Clyde and Kevin did offer me a promo code, as if I would ever use this company again. I would not recommend using The Black Tux to anyone for any reason. Their employees are clearly incompetent on several levels. They do not care about their customers. They will not correct their own mistakes. If you need a nice tuxedo for an important event, I would strongly suggest looking somewhere else.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend
