Black Tie, Every Ride: The Tuxedo Kit, Three Ways
Dress code: black tie. The story of our printed tuxedo kit, and three ways to wear it: short sleeve, long sleeve and skinsuit.
In this post
Dress code: black tie. Every ride.
Some kit is built to disappear into the bunch. The Tuxedo goes the other way. It's a full black-tie outfit printed onto a proper cycling jersey, and it has been turning heads on group rides since the first long sleeve version in 2017. Nobody has ever asked if it was a costume. They just ask where you got it.
Every detail, printed
Look closely and it's all there: white piping tracing the jacket and lapels, a pleated white shirt front with a row of black studs, a breast pocket and two hip pockets outlined in white, and a bow tie sitting right at the collar where a real one would. None of it is sewn on. The whole tuxedo is sublimated into the fabric, so there's nothing to flap, peel or crack, and the jersey is as light as any other.
The back is all business: solid black with the Corbah mark above the rear pockets. That's deliberate. It pairs with any black bibs you already own.
Three ways to wear it
1. The short sleeve jersey
The summer tux. A race cut in sweat-wicking Cross Dry 140 GSM fabric, a full-length zip with a one-year zipper warranty, three rear pockets and a silicone waist gripper. The print adds a single jacket button at the waist. Shop the short sleeve jersey, $69.95.
2. The long sleeve jersey
The original. A full high collar for sun protection, three elastic rear pockets, a full-length zip, and three printed buttons on each cuff, which is the detail people always notice. The fabric has a more relaxed, traditional feel, so size down if you want it tight. Shop the long sleeve jersey, $69.95.
3. The skinsuit
Black tie, race day. A one-piece short sleeve skinsuit with black shorts sewn in, so the tux never untucks. It's built from the same high-end lycra and sublimation as our Stealth skinsuit, with a TMF 3D chamois for long days. Shop the skinsuit, $149.95.
Finish the outfit
Either jersey looks right with plain black bibs. Pair one with the Corbah Equipe Bib Shorts and use code MATCHBIBS for $10 off.
Getting the fit right
The short sleeve jersey and the skinsuit have a close race fit. The long sleeve is more relaxed: size down for a skin-tight fit, or up for more room. For reference, a 180 cm, 153 lb rider wears a Medium. Our size guide has the full charts.
