Needed a Tux for an event in NYC, and I'm in California. The hotel recommended Abe's Formal Wear, and they did not disappoint. The fit was perfect to the point of people noticing and asking if I had the tux tailored. They delivered to the hotel and checked that everything fitted well. Impressed with their service and follow-through, so I highly recommend them. read more

This is a mom and pop shop on the second floor, one of those old time businesses that has been around forever. They have Russian AM radio playing behind the register. Came here for a tuxedo rental and the service was prompt, professional, and attentive. They have a variety of great fitting tuxedos which can be tailored to your liking. The guy will tell you what looks good on you in case you are clueless like me. I'm glad I came here to rent a tux. If I am ever in need of a tuxedo again I would just buy one here so I don't have to rent anymore. Great place, 5 stars. read more

Very nice clothes. Very good service. Walked in and got a dinner jacket and walked right out.

Absolutely fantastic service!!! I needed a tuxedo for a wedding in a pinch, and Alex put together a fantastic outfit for me -- everyone at the wedding loved it, and I couldn't have been happier with how everything worked out. If there was room for a sixth star, I'd give it. read more

Abe's Formal Wear - Bridal Near Me - Manhattan, New York

Rented a tux from Abe's long distance....had an event in Manhattan but live in Berkeley CA. Even though all interactions had to be by phone (no way to enter measurements or pay online), everything went smoothly, the tux fit perfectly, and the evening was wonderful. Thanks to Abe's, highly recommend!! read more

I had to dress two reps in white tuxedos for an event at a local movie theatre in NYC on two days notice. I reached out to Abe's Formal Wear from Los Angeles. What I found incredibly helpful is the store's website which has listings and images of its formal wear. Once I found what I was looking for, I called Abe's the next morning and their associate Alex was very helpful and patient in getting my order right and complete. I found him to be trusting as I was placing a credit card order from L.A. He made sure my reps got fitted correctly and the tuxedos were ready as promised on day of the event. He even kept me in the loop via text. I highly recommend using the store's services. read more

I visited Abe's for a tuxedo rental for a black tie wedding and I have to say my experience from the start to finish was absolutely extraordinary. I was given advice on what was not only appropriate for the occasion but also on what would look good on me. I received many compliments on my "tuxedo purchase" as the fit was almost custom like. I plan on using Abe's for my suit tailoring needs and may look into a custom suit purchase. Their quality and attention to detail is unmatched. Please anyone having a black tie event invite me... need more opportunities to visit Abe's!! Another note while I visited 2 weeks before my event they do offer same day service and on both visits witnessed being accommodated for rush service. Thanks again for a job extremely well done!!! read more

Every time I go to this place there is always someone else also renting a tux. They do a good business and there is a reason. Abe's has just about any kind of formal wear you would need, and they rent business suits as well. Alex knows this business inside and out and he is an experienced tailor besides. You will feel confident that what you rent will fit properly. read more

I rented a white tie and the experience was seamless (all puns intended). The white tie fit perfectly and the measuring and pick up and drop off were very efficient. I highly recommend Abe's read more

I rented a tux (coat, shirt, pants, bow tie, suspenders, cuff links and matching buttons), not cheap! When tried on at the store one suspenders wouldn't stay attached, but when brought up I was ignored! Just befor my daughters wedding when I put on the suit, first a cuff link failed (broke)! Second the main button on the pants came right off. Third, the suspenders again failed (under close inspection it was obvious the pin in the latch was missing)! Guess it was a good thing most were well enibriated on the dance floor at the reception, as I'm sure I looked a little haggered with these equipment failures! When I returned the suit, I asked for an adjustment, but they would not give one, Very dissapoined with the experience of dealing with them. read more

I had to find a tux rental for a young man flying in from Spain on a Wednesday and attending a red-carpet event on Friday. Nerve wracking! I found Abe's through Yelp and Google; the reviews sold me. Here's the condensed story of my 1 star rating. We had some communication issues over the phone and it was evident that his mom and pop shop is still analog however the website was easy to navigate and had lots of options and Alex assured me he would be able to get my friend into a tux that fit in such short turn-around. And he did. But it seems time and or money is tight for Abe's Formal Wear. Not sure but don't know how to explain the service my friend received. The tux that my friend was given was not pressed and the white shirt was no longer white but sweat stained through and through. The shirt was so bad, Goodwill would have rejected it. (My friend asked for a different shirt before he left the shop but Alex didn't exchange it and this wasn't noticed until he got back to his hotel.) Fortunately, the hotel, the NY Hilton Midtown, was AWESOME and they pressed the suit and tried to clean/press the shirt. The tux was passable however I went back to Abe's the day of the event with hopes of getting a clean shirt but he didn't have any that weren't pit-stained in my friend's size. Alex's advice was: "he can leave his jacket on." Disappointing. read more

We have rented tuxedos from Abe's three times in the past 4 months, both for a white tie and tails event and a black tie. They were attentive, friendly and professional. I needed both my husband and son fitted, both who are tall and thin so are hard to fit. They took the care to take measurements to ensure the tuxes fit. Everything was easy and professional. read more

I've been coming to Abe's for 4 years for tailoring & rentals. The staff does a great quality work, are very friendly, and can turn clothing around quickly. I had an event where I needed to pick up a suit in 24 hours & they were able to accommodate my request. I would definitely recommend them to anyone, and will continue to be a customer. read more

Great service. Needed a tuxedo at short notice. Came in late Saturday and was fitted quickly and picked up the tux on Monday for an event that evening. Everything fitted. It looked great. Would go back again. read more

No hassle; professional; and exceptional attention to detail. They didn't let me leave with a tuxedo rental until they made a slight sleeve adjustment to make sure I looked great. Were ready when they said they would be and is classic 'old school ' New York tailoring. read more

Abe's Formal Wear - Great tux for black tie charity event. - Bridal Near Me - Manhattan, New York

Abe's is where you go to look your best. Their garb will make a man out of even the most unfortunate looking people.

Excellent customer service, very accommodating, particularly given that we ordered at the last minute.

I rented a tuxedo for a wedding. I went to Abe's, who took my measurements and rented me a tuxedo, white button up, cufflinks, and tie that all fit perfectly and looked nice. Price was great as well. I would recommend! read more

Real professionals with a great selection of formal wear. Would rent from them again!

Amazing place to get tux! Old school shop that's on point. I needed a slim fit tux and went in, got measured and had my suit. Was a perfect fit! They are really nice people there and definitely know what they are doing. Definitely recommend. read more

Abe's worked very well for me. I called to ask if I could reserve a tux for two weeks ahead. I was told to come in and get fitted over the next couple of days. I did so. And then my next instruction was to come and pick up my tux a day or two before and return it a day or two after. It was all quick and easy. read more

Abe's Tailor Shop is great and it is in one of the most convenient areas of NYC! Mike and Alex have been a part of my business for years now and have been nothing but the best to me! They are extremely skilled and very good at what they do. They take time to pay attention to detail and always have given me what I've asked for. They have also professionally guided me to make many key decisions while fitting garments. I value and trust their expertise. If you have anything that needs altering and you want it done well I would suggest you go to Abe's! read more

When my dapper date to the ball needed a suit last minute, he dropped everything and ran to the nearest tux shop near Grand Central. While I missed the fitting, I did get to see the final result and I'd say he scored a mighty fine Brooks Brothers get-up complete with shirt and shoes for a grand total of $150 ($15 for each extra day after). It wasn't cheap but the suit fit perfectly and wasn't polyester - so there's that. The shoes were ridiculously shiny though and apparently there was no alternative. Why am I reviewing this place? Because I offered to return the damn thing when the he managed to almost miss a flight. It's pretty sketchy from the outside, and from the inside as well actually. The man running the show is nice enough, though a bit gruff in that old New Yorker sort of way. You should call ahead since the shop can get busy at peak times and they move very slowly. Either way, it's been around for 15 years and deserves some props for providing a necessary service in a convenient location. read more

I needed to rent a tux for a high-end event and Abe's took care of me. I put off making arrangements until about a week before the event, but that was not a problem. While I imagine there are a good number of tux shops in Manhattan that would do a good job, I chose Abe's mostly because their website actually showed all of their prices. I didn't price different shops, but most of the tuxes here ranged from 109-165 or so, including coat, pants, shirt, and tie. I picked one of the cheaper ones, and overall thought the quality was fine. It wasn't the best piece of formalwear I've seen, but I did choose a lower end brand. But hey, it was dark at the venue anyway, so I looked as good as anyone else. The shop is on the second floor of a walkup in midtown, and is a relic of days past. Its partly charming and partly strange, I am not sure how I felt overall. The service was fine -- I tried on my tux at pickup and one of the employees made sure everything fit and adjusted the pants, tie, etc. so that all I had to do was throw it on before my event. While it wasn't the friendliness you might encounter at some places, it gets the job done. Returning the tux was not a problem, as they open pretty early. I'd probably rent here again. Nothing about the experience made me ecstatic - but everything went smoothly, and when you need to make it to a formal event, things going smoothly is key. read more

First formal wedding outfit for out 19 year old. Looked like a movie star. Thank you Abe's for a completely seamless, custom tailored looking job! read more

Needed to rent a tux for a work banquet. Went in on a Wednesday, they took my measurements and said come back tomorrow. Came back Thursday to a stylish tux that was near perfect fit. I asked if they could take in the jacket a little and without question (or time) he did and that near perfect fit became perfect. I will 100% be going here for all my suit needs from now on. read more

I was shopping for a Blue tuxedo and stumbled across their website as the only one with colored tuxedos in NYC. I'm glad i went. I was skeptical at first since based on appearance of the location. But the tuxedos fit exactly, no alterations needed at all. Everything was well pressed and prepared for when I picked it up. Great material, accessories . I will definitely return in the future if I need a suit or tuxedo.. Thanks again. read more

Amazing service, the tux looked great, the accessories really enhanced the whole look and made me stand out. I am 6'6, some work was required, nonetheless, i got the tux the next day. I absolutely recommend it. I read other reviews about this shop, i truly feel terrible for anyone who had a less than satisfying experience, and i cant really see how that could happen. To all the Karens of this world, remember, you get what you bring ;) read more

The shop is understated but the clothes and service are excellent. Alex made the minor alterations I needed on the spot - flawless experience. Thanks! read more

Great Service and amazing suites. We came in for our initial fitting for our wedding suites, and they were very helpful. The suits looked great. We would highly recommend them. read more

I needed a tux for my sister's wedding and didn't want the standard big chain selection. Abe's was great, great selection, smooth process, and delivered as expected. I got a lot of compliments on the tux at the wedding and the return was hassle free. Not the fanciest place, but reliable and gets the job done. read more

Don't rent from this place. The only reason why I gave it a 2 was that they do carry a unique brand of suits. However, I didn't get what I was promised. I specifically asked if they carried slim fit pants. He said,"Yes." I trusted that he would deliver. When I went to pick the suit up the fit of the pants was wide leg. When he realized I was discussed, he quickly tried to find a replacement. When he found a pants that was cut a little slimmer (still not really slim fit) then the one that I tried on, he tried to charge me extra to hem it. I refused to pay for that. The second thing was that I was given a dirty shirt. When I was pressing the shirt, that's when I noticed the discussing sweat marks by the underarm area. I know I was renting a shirt but they could of washed it.STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE. read more

Extremely quick, helpful, and reasonable. Found a rental tux last minute, and they measured me as a walk-in, no appointment necessary. Staff was also friendly and approachable, and tux was great quality read more

Horrible. Don't do it. If you want pants that come up to your nipples, this is the place for you.

Rented our tuxes for my wedding and they looked great. Everything was done promptly and on time.

After failing to find the right tux for my wedding from the usual suspects that all carry the same stuff, I came across Abe's and not only did they have the slim fit midnight blue with black shawl that no other place had but they turned it round ASAP. These guys are old school superstars and will take care if you and make sure it's the perfect fit. I received compliments on the tux from everyone in attendance all night long! read more
