About Company
We founded this company to remove the stigma around renting a suit. We’re striving to be the first tuxedo and suit rental company that doesn’t feel like one. We’ve distilled that mission down to two main points: 1, the suit should fit, and 2, the experience should be simple and rewarding.
We’re looking for smart, fun, and motivated people to join us in our showrooms to help us succeed.
