The two companies’ tuxedo rental license agreement began in June 2015, according to a press release. Macy’s The Tuxedo Shop operations will stop on July 14; customers can continue to make new reservations until June 1.

“Macy’s is always looking for new partnerships that benefit both parties, as well as our customers, and we are grateful to have had the opportunity to collaborate with Tailored Brands. While the partnership did not produce the level of sales we expected, we will continue to benefit from the insights we gathered,” said Tim Baxter, chief merchandising officer at Macy’s.
