Armani Tuxedo Or Austin Reed Tuxedo?

By Clement Sancharo

The Austin Reed and Armani tuxedos have become renowned throughout the world for their fine suits and tuxedos. After reading this article you will know why these tuxedos are so popular and what separates the two in terms of style and quality.

The Armani collection was created by Georgio Armani, the former employee of Nino Cerruti. This man has taken the combination of high quality and fantastic marketing and made a real name for himself and his lineup.

This tuxedo has a quasi modern/classic cut to the jacket and pants. The Armani tux provides traditional styles that make it appropriate for all occasions and at the same time a cutting edge look that make it subtly stand apart.

Materials used are high quality wools with satin used on lapels and pant stripes. Newer models can be found with a mixture of spandex to lower the chance of wrinkles. Prices for these tuxedos usually hover around the $2,000.00 range.

Austin Reed is one of the classic companies that have lived through two world wars and survived over a century. This company is well known for its location on Regent street as well as 69 other outlets.

The style of an Austin Reed tux is conservative and classic. British elegance is combined with superb tailoring to provide classic comfort and fit.

Fibers found in an Austin Reed tuxedo are always high quality wools equal to that of the Armani tuxedo. The only drawback is that this company does not offer the innovative fabric blends that Armani has to offer. However, this is made up with a price tag of $500 for a new make.

The main difference between the Armani and Austin Reed tuxedo is the difference in more modern cuts and styles versus traditional styles and tailoring. However, the price for the more modern look is four times more expensive, so be careful when you make your choice.
