I was moving some things around The Rapa Nui Ranch the other day, prepping for our next room conversion, and when we dug into the closet, I came across this gem.
This stunning piece of formal wear, is called The Tropitux Deluxe. I had it made for me about 10 years ago, by a couple out of Michigan who used to own a formal wear store. They closed the business, but still had a large inventory. So they started customizing tuxedos, and selling them on ebay.
I didnt see anything I cared for, so I wrote them to see if they could put something together for me. They told me to send them the fabric and they would see what they could do.
I did some searching, found what i wanted, sent it to them, and voila, The Tropitux Deluxe was born.
I just went and checked, and sure enough, they are still in business. I dont know if they still do custom work, but I can vouch for the quality of their work. It came out stunning.
If Im not mistaken the tux, shorts, cummerbund, and bow tie ran about 250. I couldnt give them my money fast enough. lol
If by some chance your are interested, they still have a store on ebay called "Pats Colorful Tuxedos". They have several designs pre made, and like I said, I dont know if they still do custom work, its been 10 years, but hey, if you ask real nice.............lol. Hers a link for anyone interested. https://www.ebay.com/str/patscolorfultuxedos
