Default gentlemans magazine

Does anyone know of a good gentlemans magazine out there? I am looking for a magazine that covers such topics as mens fashion,grooming and the likes. You know suits,straight razors,pocket watches, that kind of stuff. All I can find are magazines full of half naked women and adds. Please Help

One of these days in your travels, a guy is going to show you a brand-new deck of cards on which the seal is not yet broken. Then this guy is going to offer to bet you that he can make the jack of spades jump out of this brand-new deck of cards and squirt cider in your ear. But, son, do not accept this bet, because as sure as you stand there, you're going to wind up with an ear full of cider.

You'll likely not find a magazine that covers all those topics, especially anything to do with straight razors. I would say Maxim, as they actually have good style and grooming advice, but alas, it's one of the half-naked women mags. Still beats GQ though

Esquire has always been a pretty good magazine. I haven't picked one up in a few years though, so I can't say if it's still good.

Not sure if it is available across the Pond, but Arena magazine has always been fairly solid in its style & grooming coverage over the years. I have fond memories of buying issue 1 & smuggling it back to the dorm

Default The Chap

There's also The Chap, which definitely has info on razors and pipes and general attire. It's almost tongue-in-cheek but it's sincere. Not sure if you can get it in America, but they have a web site. The Chap - MAGAZINE
