4 out of 5 stars A toned down GQ / Esquire   October 21, 2008
Details is much less indepth / informative as GQ or Esquire. The articles are shorter in length and not as journalistic. Articles are more about lifestyles and less about sports / women and cars. With reveiews that are typically a few paragraphs long. The magazine itselfs seems geared towards a younger male and a more metrosexual lifestyle. The price is right and for $10 it a great investment as you most likely find a few things each month of interest.


2 out of 5 stars Pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty models.   August 20, 2008
There are lots of attractive males in this magazine that are usually wearing nice clothes. And there are some interesting articles once in a while. But the advertisements are aplenty. Even more than some gaming magazines!

That's all you see every 2 pages or so!

That gets boring after a while...

Good thing I didn't pay for this subscription. :^D

2 stars.

end note: the title to this review kinda copies a song by Fefe Dobson. :^-D



2 out of 5 stars Ehh...   August 14, 2008
a couple good articles here and there, but the amount of adverisements are insurmountable, like 104 pages of ads before you even get to the "contents" page. 85% of each issue is basically ads for cologne, clothes, etc. i got a free subscription when i bought something off amazon, i will not be re-upping, not even for 8 bucks.


5 out of 5 stars eye candy   May 17, 2008
or am i 'aging' myself w/that expression...either way, that's exactly what this magazine is for me...that's what most of magazines of this type are about...what it looks like. sure, i'm a 'lifer' to consumer reports mag; but, when i want to give my eyes not just a rest, but a treat, this does the deed! and for a few bux a year, it's beats tv by many many miles.


3 out of 5 stars Good Fashion tips   December 30, 2007
I just received this magazine through a special holiday promotion on Amazon. Although it took a little while to receive it, it was full of great fashion tips and trends. The interviews are also enjoyable. Good Mag.
