Did you really think I asked this question so that you could all tell me why you don't dress for dinner?
At what point on the quality scale triggers a yes rent me Vs no ? Did you rent your wedding gown ?

To the OP, at this point I think it would be best to conclude that you won't get an answer on this forum.

Yes, thank you, I give up ............. I had hoped that someone out there in cyberspace would be able to answer my query.

Someone did comment that there were very limited sizes available.

Conclusion? The population on TOTV is comprised of those who do not rent a tux.

Think of all the effort you have to do to haul the tux around, keep it from wrinkling, and bringing it back to the dry cleaners not to mention costs. So the cruise line can make extra money. Buy an extra beer - a better investment.
That is an excellent observation and argument. A+.

The quality of the garments rented on board were on par with what you would receive from a Tux Shop. When I cruised with a Tux I would bring one with me, personal preference. As far as the split for those wearing Tuxes versus sport coats or suits the it varies.

Thank you. Now, let's close this thread.

I have to dress for dinner. We keep the thermostat set to 68 degrees.

A tux on a cruise ship LOL? Sounds like an episode of The Love Boat. Maybe the Brady's will be on board but not recognize each other.

Actually, I did rent a tux on a cruise. In 2013, we did a 15 night cruise San Francisco/Hawaii and back. I rented one on the Princess web site. When we got to our cabin, the tux was in the closet. Fit like a glove. Actually ended up using it twice. Regular black tux, shoes, tie, cuff links, the whole shot. If memory serves me, the cost was about $125 for the entire cruise. At the end of the cruise, we left the tux in the closet. Easy, peasy.
