Hire Class stag mark

Hire Class is a formal menswear showroom at Pandy Business Park in Gresford, ten minutes from Wrexham town centre and a short drive from Chester. What we actually offer is an experience: a private appointment, a team who style with you rather than sell at you, and tailoring for weddings, prom, black tie and race day that is fitted properly and checked again before the day.

Cloth is handled in daylight, measurements are taken by hand, and the whole party is dressed in one considered colour story rather than assembled over a dozen separate visits. We look after couples marrying across North Wales, Flintshire, Denbighshire, Chester and Cheshire, school leavers being measured for the first time, and clients who simply want to be treated properly while they choose.

The Welcome

What to expect

The suit matters.How you are looked aftermatters just as much

Anyone can hand over a jacket in a bag. What our clients remember is the afternoon itself: a room set aside for them, a team who listen, and the quiet confidence of walking out knowing the fit is right. That is the part we care most about.

  • 01

    The room is yours

    Appointments are private. The showroom, the collection and the team belong to your party alone, with no counter to queue at.

  • 02

    No clock on the wall

    Coffee, conversation and as long as it takes to settle on the cloth. We would far rather you left certain than left quickly.

  • 03

    The whole party, together

    Grooms, groomsmen, fathers and page boys are styled in the same room at the same time, so colour and cut are agreed as one.

  • 04

    Honest advice, always

    We will tell you when a cloth is wrong for the venue or the season, even when it costs us the hire. Looking after you matters more.

Our Collections

Six pieces

Six pieces, and a teamto help you choosethe right one

Nobody is handed a catalogue and left to it. We compare cloths with you in daylight, recommend against the venue, the season and the rest of the party, and narrow six pieces down to the one that genuinely suits the day. The collection covers tailored wedding suit hire, morning suits, dinner suits and tuxedo rental for black tie, prom suit hire for school leavers, and lighter tailoring for race day at Chester and Bangor on Dee, all fitted at our showroom in Gresford just outside Wrexham.

Clwyd suit from the Hire Class collection01

Clwyd

Hire

Charcoal three-piece in a fine English wool.

A quiet, versatile charcoal three-piece cut from a mid-weight English worsted wool, woven with enough body to hold a clean line through a long wedding day. The notch lapel and lightly structured shoulder flatter most builds, which makes Clwyd the piece we recommend most often for tailored wedding suit hire in Wrexham and across North Wales. Held in a complete size run from page boy to father of the bride, so an entire party can be dressed in one cloth without compromise.

Cambrian suit from the Hire Class collection02

Cambrian

Hire

Blue herringbone tweed, cut for country weddings.

A pure wool herringbone tweed in a soft, weathered blue, woven for country weddings and autumn ceremonies. The cloth carries texture rather than sheen, and it photographs beautifully in the natural light of a Welsh barn or estate. Cambrian suits couples marrying in Denbighshire, the Ceiriog Valley and the border country around Chester, and pairs naturally with waistcoats in stone, moss or oatmeal for the wider party.

Conwy suit from the Hire Class collection03

Conwy

Hire

Midnight navy tweed with a checked waistcoat.

Midnight navy tweed with a subtly checked waistcoat, cut a touch closer through the chest and waist for a considered, tailored silhouette. It reads as formal menswear without tipping into black tie, which makes it a reliable choice for civil ceremonies, evening receptions and formal dinners across Wrexham, Chester and Cheshire. Horn buttons and a half canvassed chest keep the shape honest from the first photograph to the last dance.

Menai suit from the Hire Class collection04

Menai

Hire

Light grey three-piece, softly cut for summer.

A light grey three-piece in an open weave summer wool, softly constructed so it sits easily on the shoulder through a warm afternoon. Menai is our most requested piece for June and July weddings on the North Wales coast, for garden ceremonies and for outdoor drinks receptions where a heavier cloth would quickly feel like hard work. It takes pastel ties, linen pocket squares and tan leather without effort.

Eryri suit from the Hire Class collection05

Eryri

Hire

Black dinner suit with grosgrain lapel facing.

A proper black dinner suit with grosgrain lapel facing, satin covered buttons and a matching braided trouser stripe, offered as tuxedo hire for black tie events, charity galas and awards evenings. Worn with a marcella shirt and a hand tied bow, it is evening dress done correctly rather than a dark lounge suit pressed into service. Eryri is also the piece most school leavers choose for prom suit hire in Wrexham and the surrounding towns.

Snowdon suit from the Hire Class collection06

Snowdon

Hire

Soft blue summer cloth, made for the racecourse.

A soft blue summer cloth with a relaxed shoulder and a slightly higher trouser rise, made with race day attire in mind. Snowdon was cut for long afternoons at Chester, Bangor on Dee and Aintree, where a suit needs to breathe, resist creasing and still look considered in the parade ring at five o'clock. It hires readily as a two piece for the races or as a three piece for summer weddings and formal garden parties.

The Process

Four steps

Looked after at every step,from the first visitto the morning after

Every hire begins with a private appointment in Gresford, where cloth, colour and measurements are settled with our team in person rather than guessed from a size chart.

  1. 01

    Book Your Appointment

    Tell us the occasion and we set the showroom aside for you and your party alone.

  2. 02

    Styled by Our Team

    Styled with you, in daylight, with honest advice rather than a rail to browse.

  3. 03

    Fitted, Then Checked Again

    Measured properly by hand, then invited back and checked again before the day.

  4. 04

    Wear It, Leave the Rest to Us

    Wear it, enjoy the day, then hand everything back. The rest is our job.

It takes two minutes. Tell us about the occasion and we will set the showroom aside for you.

The Cloth

Standards you feel before you see

Every jacket in the collection is cut from British and Italian cloth chosen for weight, drape and how it behaves after twelve hours of wear. Horn buttons, taped seams and a canvassed chest that holds its shape. Hired, but never disposable.

Fabric is where a hired suit is usually let down, so it is where we spend the most care. Worsted wools for weddings that run from a morning ceremony into a late evening, herringbone and Donegal tweeds for autumn and winter in the Welsh countryside, open weave summer cloths for race meetings and coastal ceremonies. Linings are cut generously, trousers are finished with a proper waistband and turn ups where the cloth suits them, and every garment is pressed and inspected in Gresford before it leaves for the occasion.

Alterations are carried out in house. If a sleeve sits a quarter inch long or a waistcoat needs taking in the week before the wedding, it is corrected here in Wrexham rather than sent away, which is the practical reason our clients from Chester and Cheshire make the short drive across the border.

Good cloth is only half of it. A suit that fits badly looks hired no matter what it cost to weave, so our fitters check the same things every time: the collar sitting flat against the neck, the shoulder ending where your shoulder ends, a clean line down the sleeve, the trouser breaking once and no more. Those checks are repeated at the second fitting, and again when the garment is pressed before collection. It is unglamorous work, and it is the reason people tell us afterwards that the suit felt like theirs.

The Showroom

An afternoon in Gresford, not a queue at a counter

The whole party comes at once. Coffee in the morning, a glass of something later on, and as long as it takes to settle on the cloth. Nobody is rushed, nothing is decided at a rail under strip lighting, and a member of our team stays with you for the whole appointment rather than appearing at the till at the end.

Our fitting showroom sits at Pandy Business Park in Gresford, ten minutes from Wrexham town centre and around twenty five minutes from Chester, with free parking at the door. Appointments are private and unhurried, which matters when eight people need measuring, waistcoats need comparing against the bride's palette, and someone has driven up from Cheshire for the afternoon.

We fit wedding parties, prom groups, race day regulars and black tie guests from across North Wales, Flintshire, Denbighshire and the Cheshire border, and we hold sizes from small page boys to considerably larger fathers of the bride. Some clients arrive knowing exactly what they want and some have never worn a suit that fits. Both are looked after the same way, and both leave knowing somebody here is accountable for how they look on the day.

Occasions

Dressed for the day in question

Weddings, proms, race meetings and black tie evenings each ask something different of a suit, and something different of the people fitting it. These are the four occasions we dress most often for clients in Wrexham, Gresford, Chester and the wider North Wales and Cheshire region, and each is handled with its own cloth, its own cut and its own kind of care.

Weddings styling by Hire Class

Weddings

The whole party, dressed as one

Wedding suit hire for the entire party, from the groom and best man to ushers, fathers and the youngest page boy, all in matched cloth and a consistent cut. We dress weddings across North Wales and Cheshire, from country house venues in the Ceiriog and Dee valleys to city ceremonies in Chester, coordinating waistcoats, ties and pocket squares to the palette the bride has already set. One member of our team looks after the booking from the first appointment to the final check, so nobody in the party is chasing details in the last fortnight, and a late addition is rarely a problem.

Prom styling by Hire Class

Prom

A first suit worth remembering

Prom suit hire and dinner suits fitted properly rather than borrowed and pinned at the last minute. School leavers from Wrexham, Gresford, Rossett and the surrounding villages come to us for their first tailored suit, and most arrive a little unsure of what they want. Our team takes the time to explain fit, collar, bow tie and shoe without a hint of a sales pitch, so a nervous sixteen year old walks into the room entirely at ease. Group bookings for a year group are welcome, with sizes held from the spring so nothing is left to the final fortnight.

Race Day styling by Hire Class

Race Day

Chester, Bangor-on-Dee, Aintree

Race day attire for the Chester May Festival, Bangor on Dee and Aintree, cut in lighter cloths with softer colour and a relaxed shoulder. A racing suit has to survive a long afternoon on your feet, so we favour breathable summer wools, a higher trouser rise and a jacket that still looks considered after several hours in the sun. Our team knows the enclosure rules at each course and will say plainly what will and will not be admitted, which saves an awkward conversation at the gate.

Black Tie styling by Hire Class

Black Tie

Evening dress, done correctly

Black tie menswear and tuxedo hire for charity balls, awards dinners, hunt balls and formal galas throughout North Wales, Wrexham and Cheshire. Grosgrain lapels, satin covered buttons, marcella shirts and hand tied bows are the details that separate genuine evening dress from a dark lounge suit, and we fit all of them properly. If it is your first black tie evening, our team will show you how to tie the bow, where the studs sit and what to do with the cummerbund, so you arrive looking as though you have done it a hundred times.

Moments

Looked after well, across North Wales and the border

“Eight of us, three counties apart, and nothing was too much trouble for them. They remembered every detail, checked everything twice, and made the whole thing feel effortless.”

Common Questions

Anything you needto know beforeyou visit

The questions we are asked most often about wedding suit hire, prom, black tie and race day tailoring at our Gresford showroom near Wrexham. Search below, or speak to us directly and we will answer it properly.

We suggest six to nine months before the wedding for peace of mind, though we regularly dress parties at shorter notice. Once the groom has been measured we hold the pieces for the date, and any groomsmen travelling from further afield can be fitted separately at the Gresford showroom.

Unit 1, Pandy Business Park, Pandy, Gresford, Wrexham LL11 2UD. It is roughly ten minutes from Wrexham town centre and twenty from Chester, just off the A483. Parking sits directly outside the unit and is free for clients.

Allow around forty five minutes for one person and closer to two hours for a full party. A member of our team stays with you throughout: talking through the occasion, comparing cloth in daylight, trying jackets on, then measuring everyone properly. There is coffee, there is no clock on the wall, and nothing is decided until you are certain.

A standard hire covers the jacket, trousers, waistcoat, shirt, tie or cravat and pocket square. Shoes, cufflinks and braces can be added. Everything is pressed and packaged before collection, and adjustments are made in house before you take it away.

Hire is priced by the piece and the completeness of the outfit rather than by a single headline figure. Most wedding and black tie hires sit within a sensible mid range, with reductions for larger parties and complimentary hire arrangements for grooms on qualifying group bookings. We will quote clearly at the fitting with nothing added afterwards.
