Oops. I had it wrong. It is pricey.

So, is it worth it?

 

[smittycl]

I subscribed for a year sometime last summer. Maybe the price went up since then? I guess I would say it’s not worth $30 an issue.

 

[smittycl]

I thought I paid $60 but math obviously isn’t my strong suit!

When this covid thing broke out, I started reading more and mens fashion is always an interest. I ended up ordering a subscription to 2nd magazine for ~$17 an issue:

2nd Magazine

Clutch Cafe London offers a unique selection of Japanese heritage clothing, lifestyle publications & accessories.

It's in japanese, and I don't speak/read, so I REALLY just got it for the pictures. Pre-covid, I used to go to NYC a lot and they have a great Japanese bookstore by Bryant park. Always tried to stop by and get an issue. It's worth it as the issues are thick and full of pictorial content.

Caveat: I havent' gotten a single issue and it's been about 5-6 weeks. Giving them some slack due to covid, though.

We talking about magazines? The first ever magazine subscription that I received was Penthouse back in the late '90s (senior in HS) before the internet exploded. My college friend was moving away so he forwarded what was left on the subscription to me.

Remember having to pay for Appreciation? Man that was the worst.

Man, I am must be getting really old. The good old days when Playboy and Penthouse mattered. Then it was internet brought to you by AOL via dial up.

Anyone been to the aquatic gardens?

Yep, but not since lockdown. Really pretty.

Rota pants out in Georgetown for their first wear. My shirt is only just starting to dry. It’s hot out... Would normally go sockless with suede loafers but long walks need socks!
