Question Title What does 'non-vented back' mean on tuxedo jackets?
Tuxedos come in either "non-vented", "center-vented", or "side-vented" styles.  Most tuxedos are available in "non-vented" versions.  This means that there is no vent in the back of the jacket (full stitched).  "Center vented" means that there is a center vent in the back of jacket (similar to a slit).  "Side vents" means that there is a vent (or slit) on each side of the jacket.
 
As stated above, most tuxedos are non-vented.  Non-vented tuxedos work well for the majority of people out there.  Larger gentleman should also stay with the non-vented versions; otherwise, the vents tend to flare out.  Trimmer gentleman have the option of going either way (with or without vents).
 
Many of the European styles are beginning to implement side vents in their styles.
