Independent Men’s Magazines

Mainstream men’s mags are going through a tough time, but indie publications like these three are thriving, original and entertaining. Steven Gregor’s Gym Class is a great creative industries fanzine “for the guy chosen last”. Pink Mince is an intriguing mash-up of camp Fifties iconography and beautiful type, while The Rig Out is a lovely style zine published by Manchester menswear store Oi Polloi. If lads mags are dying, ‘man mags’ seem to be in the ascendent.
