The Black Tux

We started with a simple question: why are rental tuxedos so uncomfortable and uninspired?

Founded in 2013 by Andrew Blackmon and Patrick Coyne following Andrew's frustrating wedding planning experience, we initially set out to transform formal wear rentals into something worth celebrating.

We created premium formal wear that combines rental convenience with high-end retail quality and fit. What started as reimagining formal wear rental has since evolved into a comprehensive menswear collection, offering both rental and retail options, alongside an expanding line of refined menswear staples.

We believe formalwear should feel as good as it looks. Our garments are designed to be effortlessly stylish, crafted with premium fabrics from the same mills that supply luxury fashion houses.

The influences that shape our collections are rooted in the refined elegance of mid-century American style. We draw inspiration from an era when men dressed with purpose, creating garments that honor that legacy while prioritizing contemporary comfort. We create each piece to be the cornerstone of your wardrobe—perfect for once-in-a-lifetime celebrations or everyday moments.

We create exceptional experiences through clothing to transform how people show up for life's meaningful moments.
