Tailored Brands - Fashion Company Profile

Company Profile

Tailored Brands sells suits, tuxedo rentals and corporate apparel through its own stores, so this page carries no marketplace shop box - its official site, linked above, is the route to its brands. What the profile adds is the arc: the 2014 Jos. A. Bank acquisition that created the modern group, the January 2016 holding-company renaming, the August 2020 Chapter 11 filed with $1.4 billion of long-term debt, and the private company that emerged from it - now preparing, per its 2026 filing, to ask the public market to buy the suit business again.

At the filing's date the scale was considerable: the largest specialty retailer of men's suits and the largest provider of tuxedo rental product in the U.S. and Canada, with 1,754 stores as of March 2016, including tuxedo shops within Macy's stores. Its stores carried suits, sport coats, furnishings and accessories in exclusive and non-exclusive brands, tuxedo and suit rentals ran through Men's Wearhouse, Jos. A. Bank and Moores, and a global corporate apparel and workwear group paired Twin Hill in the United States with Dimensions, Alexandra and Yaffy in the United Kingdom.

Bankruptcy, Emergence and a Private Decade

The holding-company era began with the decade's most public menswear fight: Men's Wearhouse's 2014 acquisition of Jos. A. Bank for $1.8 billion, after each company had tried to buy the other. The combined company's debts and the pandemic then collided: Tailored Brands filed for Chapter 11 on August 2, 2020, announced some 500 store closures, and emerged at the end of 2020 with about $686 million of debt eliminated and control effectively passed to its lenders, led by Silver Point Capital. It has traded as a private company since, operating more than 1,000 stores under the Men's Wearhouse, Jos. A. Bank, Moores and K&G banners.

In 2026 the company filed registration papers to return to the public market - a proposed Nasdaq listing under the symbol MENW - under chief executive John Tighe, who took over in August 2025. Until that offering completes, the snapshot on this page describes it as it stands: a private menswear group, still the largest specialty suit retailer in North America, whose 2016 store count of 1,754 belongs to its history rather than its present.
