Sorrentino just signed on to a reported six-figure deal with FLOW Formal to develop a line of tuxedos and formal wear for a younger demographic, the company’s CEO, Brian Weintraub, confirms to TMZ.

“This is great for us and great for the industry,” Weintraub says. “[Tuxedos have] become an old man thing."

The line called, yes, “The Situation,” will become available in February 2012 and includes tuxes, slim fit shirts, and accessories.

This is just the latest big deal for "The Situation," who has already done a line of t-shirts, workout videos, a liquor sponsorship, and a book deal.
