Esquire is a men’s magazine that features a wide variety of subjects that are of interest to the male species. This magazine is published monthly and it has been with a circulation for more than 70 years, with a subscription base of about 670,000...

Pros: very good articles, stories and interviews
Cons: Guys do not want to look at other guys wearing expensive clothes.

Expecting to find a slightly more upscale version of MAXIM or STUFF, I set about reading Esquire magazine. The adage, don't judge a book by it's cover applies greatly to this magazine.

Upon seeing a copy of Esquire magazine, ones immediate...

Pros: If you've lived on Eglin AFB, this is your magazine!
Cons: Why confine Chiarella to humor, and Junod to news?

Esquire is one of those magazines that I followed while in college but that I stopped reading after I left campus. The periodical had superior editors and writers during the late eighties -- that ...

Pros: Well-written; limited advertisements; cutting edge art design; in touch.
Cons: Shallow at points.

The world of men’s magazines is festooned with glossy covers adorned with half dressed woman and mostly vapid content geared toward the more Neanderthal and or juvenile among us. In a world filled with Maxim and Stuff magazines, ...

Pros: Low subscription price and quality content...
Cons: ...although not quite as brilliant (especially with fiction) as it once was.

Like an aging baseball player who has lost a step legging out an infield grounder, Esquire simultaneously dropped its standards a bit, but made the magazine accessible to more readers. The periodical once regarded as a literary GQ did not ...

Pros: Good pictures. On top of the trends. Interesting topics
Cons: Can be alienating if you're poor. Silly pretension can be somewhat annoying

There are times you just want something to read
when you are sitting on the can and Esquire is one
of those magazines. This 140 page magazine uncovers
the latest trends in fashion, food and entertainment
and aims at the male...

Pros: Entertaining, informative
Cons: none

I signed up for a free online offer to get a free subscription to Esquire magazine. I didn't think it would actually work, so I was pleasantly surprised when I got my first issue in the mail soon after. In fact, I continued to receive the ...

Pros: 1 year subscription under $9.00!
Cons: articles geared toward men in their mid to upper 30's

For almost seventy years “Esquire” men’s magazine has given fashion, health and financial advice. This magazine has stood the test of time. If I’m not surfing the Internet while riding the exercise bike, I reading a magazine, and since I finished with...

Pros: Some good features, decent photography
Cons: To Hip for Me

Esquire Magazine tricked me into buying a subscription to it by convincing me that I need this magazine to remain a hip, vital male in today’s society. It’s scantily clad women and ultra-cool articles and product reviews made me certain that I would be...

Pros: great, interesting, one-of-a-kind articles, good bathroom read
Cons: lack of pictures, tech section not that strong, only 132 pages

When you think of Esquire, you think of Details, Vanity Fair, People, Entertainment Weekly and all those other men's entertainment and forum magazines. Well, you are right. Esquire throws in a mix of all these magazines and some more: celebrity views,...

Pros: sexy pictures
Cons: nothing else of value

I used to subscribe to Esquire in high school, and found it entertaining at the time.

Esquire kind of uses the Playboy model - sell a magazine to straight men with sexy pictures of women - and then market the magazine to convince them that...

Pros: Addresses issues.
Cons: It is sold on sex appeal.

Esquire is a magazine that looks like one of those that are sold on sex appeal and have no substance. However, they use sexy photographs to address issues. A few months ago they ran a secton titled "Breasts Reassesed," this article dealt...

Pros: great writing
Cons: none

Even though this is in the men's section do not be fooled. Women are interested in thought provoking articles also.

Every time I see this magazine I end up reading it from cover to cover. There are often provocative pictures on the cover. I...

Pros: Well-written and professional
Cons: Pretentious, alienating tone

Esquire is one of those conundrums of the magazine world - it's ostensibly a men's style magazine that tries to play it hip and cool (to cater to the all-important twentysomething market) but when you actually sit down and read an issue,...

Pros: Interesting Articles
Cons: None if in a waiting room.

Over the years I have read Esquire while in waiting rooms to see a doctor, dentist, or attorney. My latest reading of the July 2000 Esquire came a few days ago in my dentist's office. In this issue there are feature articles written in a clear and...
