HAMPSTEAD, Md., Sept. 12, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- JoS. A. Bank Clothiers, Inc. (Nasdaq:JOSB) announces the launch of its new Tuxedo Rental website ( www.josbankformal.com ). The innovative website allows brides and grooms to manage the tuxedo rental process from start to finish from the comfort of home, or from any of the company's 572 stores. Brides can browse a collection of over 40 tuxedo styles, 340 tie styles and 165 vest styles.  Couples can register their event on the website to gain access to their event dashboard, where they can monitor the status of orders, and communicate with their wedding party through emails or text messaging. Event information will then flow seamlessly to stores, where associates can access existing events or create new ones, and confirm orders. Events can also be created for proms, quinceaneras and social events. 

"We're excited about the launch of our new Tuxedo Rental website," stated Jerry DeBoer, Senior Vice President of Marketing at JoS. A. Bank. "We expect the site to simplify the tuxedo rental process for brides and grooms, who put so much time and effort into planning their wedding day. The new dashboard feature provides access to the most up-to-date information, so brides and grooms will no longer have to wonder if groomsmen have visited a store to be measured, or whether their tuxedos have arrived at a store," continued Mr. DeBoer.
