The Black Tux is a sharp new rental-tuxedo company that offers tailored tuxes with a precision fit at wallet-friendly prices, putting an end to the lumpy, overpriced formalwear of days gone by. As GQ puts it, “The Black Tux has come to rescue guys from tux-rental hell.”
In a summer-themed story shot in Malibu, Steven Lippman captures the edgy, stylish spirit of the brand with the help of pro surfers Luke Davis, Nick Rozsa, Chase Wilson, and Matt McCabe. Below, some highlights from “Wet Suits.”
