The Canadian Tuxedo – A Denim Legacy

The Canadian Tuxedo – A Denim Legacy If you’ve ever seen someone rocking denim on denim, congratulations—you’ve witnessed the legendary Canadian Tuxedo in action. Love it or hate it, this all-jean outfit has been around for decades, and it’s not going anywhere anytime soon. A Fashion Accident Turned Iconic The story of the Canadian Tuxedo dates back to the 1950s, when legendary singer Bing Crosby was allegedly denied entry into a fancy Canadian hotel for wearing an all-denim outfit. Levi’s caught wind of this and, in response, designed a formal denim jacket just for him. Yes, a tuxedo made of denim. And just like that, a fashion statement was born.
