doffy's Full Review: Outside Magazine Subscription
I've been getting this magazine for a few years now. At first I thought, "This doesn't look like it's for me....I don't do all those sports", but I soon discovered that it doesn't matter if you don't actually DO the sport. It can be awfully fun just to READ about it! Since then I've read about, no I've traveled to, a lot of places that most people aren't actually able to visit, like Everest and Antarctica. They also do plenty of articles about places us regular folks can get to as well. Every month they feature various destinations, and the info to be able to plan your own trip.
The thing that I really love about Outside is their attitude...it's very in your face, with edgy graphics and layouts, and stunning photography. They feature a lot of bios on various lesser-known sports figures, as well as the more well known. They aren't just about sports, either. There are a lot of adventure travel articles, and some that are hard to categorize. They did one piece on a guy that illegally killed bears and sold the gall bladders and other parts into the Asian medicine market. The story about how they set this guy up and finally caught him was great reading! Then there was the one about the guy that went to Samoa and tried to get the Samoans to work out. Or the one about Ted Nugent. I could go on....
And for the really athletic, they do feature a monthly section on bodywork, and gear reviews. I even enjoy reading that stuff....just in case I ever take up kayaking or something!
I have found that I really, really like this magazine! It takes me far, far away each month, and leaves me begging for more.
