I’m surprised by how many young men I know own tuxes. It’s either because they play in an orchestra or decided that it made sense to buy for an event instead of rent.

My nephew used his father’s hand me down since high school but finally bought his own. He went to a lot of black tie events in high school and after. He was an escort for a number of Deb events, he’s been in weddings, he’s been to his own fraternity events.

He got married last summer and the only groomsmen who needed to rent tuxes were 2 who lived overseas and just didn’t want to lug one back so just rented. It is just sort of the crowd he hangs with.
