Outside Magazine Subscription

Pros: Bikes, Some Excitement, Some Pics, Accurate Product Reviews
Cons: Most gear/Trips too costly for most, Boring articles, Some iffy photos, Lacks passion

As someone who truly loves the outdoors, and abhors every moment of office time, I'm looking forward to retirement. It's some 20+ years away, but its not too early to dream about constant skiing, fishing, hiking, biking, camping, and hunting. Lately I've ...

Pros: related website, occasional compelling article
Cons: no wow factor in the photography, magazine lacks focus

I had high hopes when I saw issues of Outside Magazine.  The covers had vivid photography, and the blurbs for the inside articles sounded interesting.  All I can say is thank goodness I had taken the time to read issues before making the ...

Pros: The articles about far away places; Product reviews
Cons: Covers too many topics; Hard to find a good subscription price

For fans of everything outdoor related, an assortment of magazine publications exist to tickle your fancy. There are magazines related to hunting; fishing; travel; and other activities and the majority try to saturate your appetite for information on a ...

Pros: Great articles, excellent photos
Cons: the darn subscription tear-outs!

Several years ago, I was visiting a friend in Colorado and waiting for him to primp and preen before we went out for the night (me, I had on teva's and baseball hat). So, while sitting sipping a beer, I picked up a magazine sitting on the coffee table, ...

Pros: Great Writing, Interesting Stories, Impressive Photography, Gets it all Outside
Cons: may not be "in-depth" enough for true die-hards of various outdoor sports

Longing to go trekking in Nepal, or sea kayaking along the coast of some far away land? Outside Magazine helps you see what you’re missing and gives you some ideas on how to get there. While some of the feature articles are reviews of areas that ...

Pros: Great writing, good range of articles, great (but concise) gear reviews
Cons: Pretty fashion-oriented, not enough gear reviews, website is hard to navigate

OK, I admit it. I am a closet outdoorsy-type. I don't know why I'm just discovering it, but oh well. I wanted to get some good trail running gear and a new sleeping bag this winter, so I bought Outside's annual Buyer's Guide. They had some great...

Pros: Looks appealing, nice pictures, some great articles
Cons: Too many ads, too many booze ads, too little OUTSIDE, too much expense & ritz

Outside is the "Vogue" of outdoor magazines. It represents what is trendy, and is sometimes more fun than truly functional. When I began subscribing to Outdoor, I had acutally never seen or read the magazine. I was surprised when I looked through it....

Pros: Perfect for the "armchair" traveler
Cons: Having to pay for it?

This magazine opened up the world to my eyes! When I first began to read this magazine, I was embroiled in a "see-the-world-before-it's-too-late rage." My imagination was sparked by articles about such places as the island of Western Samoa,...

Pros: Nice photography, occasional great articles
Cons: Fashion sections. Camping is not a competitive sport.

I have been a subscriber to Outside for more than 20 years - nearly from issue 1. I have finally decided that enough is enough and I will not be renewing my subscription when it expires this fall. Just one special fashion section too many, I...

Pros: Great articles, photos and product reviews
Cons: None that I've found

When I first browsed through this magazine at a local sports store I was hooked. Since then I've been a faithful subscriber and look forward to each issue. This magazine is simply packed full of interesting information, product reviews and fantastic...

Pros: Great look, fascinating articles, beautiful photography
Cons: sometimes a little too much information for the non-athlete, but it doesn't really matter!

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...

Pros: great articles
Cons: some can be boring

Skiing is a very exciting and fun time! If you want some great tips on skiing, great places to go, where to get the cheapest but sturdy ski equiptment.....pick up this magazine..."OUTSIDE" It is great, and it will give you something to look...

Pros: beautiful photographs, descriptive narrarations
Cons: none

Outdoor Magazine is my favorite outdoor magazine. The articles are descriptively and beautifully written, encouraging me to pursue my outdoor adventures, and the photographs remind me of why I love nature. I find the best aspect of Outdoor to be the...

Pros: Some good info
Cons: Could be better

Outside magazine has been around for quite some time and was the first of its genre, i.e., a magazine that revolves around outdoor sports such as climbing, hiking, mountain biking, kayaking, rafting, and so on. The magazine has a very clear market:...

Pros: Nice Pictures
Cons: To General

What is Outside magazine really saying? I have several problems with Outside magazine; in fact every time I pick a copy up I get upset by the time I get to the end. Starting on page one I feel bombarded by advertisements telling me to buy a SUV and go...
