Average man feels two-thirds more confident in a suit

The average man feels 67% more confident when sporting their best suit or tuxedo, according to new research.

Commissioned by Generation Tux and conducted by Talker Research, a poll of 2,000 U.S. men revealed that while their self-esteem gets a solid boost, their confidence in their ability to choose the right one wanes.

According to the results, six in ten men (59%) said they felt “somewhat” or “very” confident about knowing what to wear for different wedding dress codes.

But the data told another story: When presented with a list of clothing and a picture, only 53% were able to correctly identify “black tie” attire.

Just 41% were able to correctly identify “white tie,” and a dismal 17% correctly picked out cocktail attire.
