So Much Better than Maxim! August 26, 2010 Princess Diana (Snow world) This magazine is great and has a lot of good information and tips. It is more classy and sophisticated than the otherwise "trashy" Maxim magazine. Better yet, you will not be embarrassed to have Esquire on the table when family is over. And, the best part, this magazine is very enjoyable by all ages and both genders. Love it! The price is great!
When it is good, it is very very good... July 30, 2010 John A. Stemen (Utica, NY) Esquire simply isn't the magazine my Dad used to bring home once in a while 30 or 40 years ago. But at times, there are between one and three very compelling articles in an issue. They've covered the war in Iraq quite well for years now, and sometimes they'll do a feature on a person who is either noted or should be noted, which is quite good. But sometimes they'll throw together a rather mediocre issue too. When a magazine that used to be hundreds of pages is sometimes putting out one barely over 100--and it is chock full of ads and columns about clothing and gadgets I'd never be able to afford, then it can be digested and thrown out in an hour or less. I miss the "most dubious achievements" issue, although in today's world of The Onion and The Daily Show, I can see why it was discontinued. No one can top Gay Talese, or Capote, or some of the other writers they used to have, but some of their current crop aren't bad, just not in that league. For the price it's not a bad magazine, but after many years as a subscriber, I've had enough, and probably won't renew. I also don't get every issue in the mail anyway, and getting six to eight out of 12 issues, even for $8 or $10 isn't good enough for me.
GQ and Maxim had a baby and... May 28, 2010 Armando N. Roman (Hillsboro, OR) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I don't read many magazines unless one's laying around and I'm waiting for something, or have nothing better to do on my lunch break. It seems like for the last 3 months, there's always been an issue of Esquire sitting around. What I like about Esquire is that it's a men's magazine without being too much of a men's magazine, if that makes any sense. The pages aren't littered with young women in clothes that would put your standard stripper to shame, and there aren't a lot of features about cars, expensive watches and sports. So what -does- this magazine have then? It's kind of a mix of everything in GQ and some things from Maxim. You get some really good fashion pages, showing the latest trends in classy suits along with info on who makes them and how much they cost...some pictures of (usually) attractive women in tasteful poses...and then a few pages for things like drinks, professional sports info now and then, and of course the featured articles.
That's actually where Esquire shines, to me anyway. I've gotten more out of some of their articles than I ever did reading some of the editorials in Maxim and even GQ. One issue of Esquire had a lengthy story about a married couple's pet chimpanzee, and how it had to be put in an animal sanctuary. The couple went to visit him one day, and thanks to some very bad luck, the man was obliterated by two other chimps that had gotten out of their cages. I couldn't put the magazine down once I got into that story. It was interesting, well-written, and even had pictures of the guy before and after the attack to show just how bad he got it, even all these years later. Another great recent article had to do with a man who murdered his wife and kids because he was ashamed of being a failure, and how he wanted to make a difference before his execution. While waiting on Death Row, he saw a movie that made him want to donate his organs, but because of his scheduled lethal injection death, it would've rendered the organs useless, and thanks to the guy writing the article (who just so happened to have his identity stolen by the murderer), he ended up trying to jump through all the legal loopholes and find a way of getting a program set up for convicts to donate their organs to those who need them.
For a guy's magazine, Esquire is pretty good. This is coming from someone who pretty much has nothing to do with cars, sports or drinks (I'm more into real martial arts and fitness, being a dad and movies). I'm actually subscribing to the magazine right now as I'm typing this review because hey, for the price the subscription's going for, that's a heck of a deal. And Esquire has nothing but my full respect for having Christina Hendricks as their Sexiest Woman Alive. See? These guys DO make good decisions now and then.
magazine confirmation May 22, 2010 Gerald W. Moorehead 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I think it is great to get a discount on the magazine of your choice but why doesn't the magazine confirm that we are getting a discount so that there is an understanding of how long (months) the magazine will be coming to our front door. That way we don't have to wonder whether the discount was reported to the magazine and that we are getting it. It seems the right way to handle the magazine discount business. gerald moorehead.
Great Mag. Poor Timing. May 22, 2010 ralphoto (Seattle, WA USA) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I like the magazine. I just don't understand why, when computers make money transfers instantaneous, it takes over a month to begin my subscription.
