INDOCHINO Pledges to Suit Up 25,000 Grooms for Free

By Ann Binlot Feb 28, 2018 7:15 PM

Around 6,200 weddings are taking place at any given time in North America each day. That means there are a lot of grooms and groomsmen who need to get suited up. Vancouver-based custom suit maker INDOCHINO made an ambitious pledge to suit up to 25,000 grooms for free in 2016. Of course, there’s a catch, but it’s an easy one: “Any groom whose wedding party of four or more groomsmen is outfitted by INDOCHINO will receive his own made to measure suit free of charge.”.

Here’s How It Works:

Step 1. Schedule an appointment at one of INDOCHINO’S seven showrooms for the groom and his groomsmen.

Step 2. A Style Guide will personally work alongside the wedding party to design each suit in INDOCHINO’s Groom’s Lounge – a dedicated space to relax and enjoy the experience. Get measured, browse from an incredible range of suit, tuxedo and shirt fabrics and select customizations that include lapel, lining, buttons, collar, cuffs, monogram, and more.

Step 3. Grooms and groomsmen can expect delivery within 4 weeks, at which time INDOCHINO will invite the wedding party back to the showroom to ensure a perfect fit and complete satisfaction.

Grooms and groomsmen can visit any one of INDOCHINO’s seven showroom locations in New York, Beverly Hills, San Francisco, Boston, Philadelphia, Toronto and Vancouver.

“A wedding is one of the biggest days in a man’s life and we want to ensure the groom and his groomsmen will look and feel their best on the big day. Of course, if we can help remove some of the stress of wedding planning with a free suit – we’re happy to help,” said Drew Green, CEO of INDOCHINO. “From the moment a groom steps into our showroom to when his party’s coordinated, picture-perfect outfits are delivered, every INDOCHINO customer will feel the made to measure difference.

Who wouldn’t want a custom-made suit for their wedding day? How could anybody turn down an offer that good?

Bulova’s new Shelby Racer Chronograph is inspired by the Daytona Coupe

Car, Watch, Man

We are fully in race-car-watch-season, and Bulova is joining the pack with their newest release. The New York company is back at it with Carroll Shelby Licensing for a new limited-edition chronograph.

This one’s the Shelby Racer, built around the 50th Anniversary Aluminum Edition Daytona Coupe. That’s the aluminum-bodied version of the car that made Shelby the only American manufacturer to win the FIA Sports Car World Championship in 1965. (If you’ve seen Ford v Ferrari, you already know the rivalry — that movie covered Shelby’s Le Mans campaign a year later, but the Daytona Coupe is where the beef with Ferrari actually started.)

The Gentleman’s Guide to Wedding Attire

Wedding toast

As a menswear writer, I take pride in snazzy dressing. You can imagine my chagrin when I showed up to a recent wedding as the worst-dressed groomsman. It had been a perfect storm of sartorial mishaps. I’d slimmed down since the last time I wore black tie, leaving the jacket and cummerbund baggy. My favorite cuff links had vanished on a work trip. To complete the fiasco, my tuxedo shirt bore an archipelago of merlot stains from a Christmas party in late ’25.

Fortunately, I had the chance to salvage my dignity at another wedding a few weeks later. I rallied like Rocky. Rush alterations. New cuff links. A crisp Marcella shirt. Polished black shoes. I went from disheveled schlub to black-tie stud.

TAG Heuer just brought back its best Japanese racing collab

TAG Heuer just announced the second Carrera collaboration with Team Ikuzawa and Bamford Watch Department, three years after their first one together — and this time, they went back to a stopwatch.

The watch is built on TAG Heuer’s 39mm Carrera Glassbox, the modern take on the original 1963 Carrera that swaps a bezel for a highly domed sapphire crystal. But the design here pulls specifically from the Heuer Roadmaster, a vintage timing stopwatch Team Ikuzawa used trackside through the ’70s and ’80s, not from any particular car or race.
