Explanation - Many tuxedos, like suits are made with a set size pant to a jacket. Generally there is a six inch difference between the coat size and the waist size so a 42 coat generally comes with a 36 waist pant. These pants can be tailored out up to 2 inches and in by several inches (depends on how big the pant is to start with – 4 inches out of a 28 inch waist is a big deal, 4 inches out of a 44 waist is not a big deal). This type of tuxedo is called a “nested garment” and is often made by higher quality manufacturers.
Separates are made from different cloth that is guaranteed to match which allows the manufacturer to give you any size jacket and any size pant. So you can order a 44 coat with a 28 waist or if you are less athletic a 44 coat with a 44 waist – you get the idea.
** These tuxedos are “rental quality”. This does not mean they used, everything we offer is factory fresh, never worn. Rather, it means the garment is designed to be used by a rental store and will look great after its 30th, 40th, 50th dry cleaning. Terrific if you are a musician, maitre d, etc. but not as soft as the “retail quality” tuxedos which are designed to be used by a single owner who expects to get as much use out of the tuxedo as a standard suit.
