Quite possibly the epitome of men's vintage style with an eye firmly fixed on the relevance of quality, longevity, and taste. Let's not mince words -- I'm in love with 2nd Magazine! It's a publication aimed not at the fashion fickle, rather directly at those who've settled into a well worn personal aesthetic -- cultivated through the years, a style that pays homage to heritage & craftsmanship whilst embracing the emerging classics of the present day.

From articles cataloging the history and provenance of essential designs & designers (e.g. 10 reasons why standard item is standard) to style "case studies" showcasing 3 iterations of a classic piece, each issue of 2nd is, at once, a visual reference guide and lifestyle text.
