Esquire Men's Magazine Video Review - Why a Man Should Subscribe

About this video

Centeno reviews Esquire Magazine as a men’s style resource, arguing it offers solid content and great visuals at an affordable price point compared to premium alternatives like The Rake or Men’s Ex. He identifies both strengths—including monthly physical delivery and accessible style ideas—and weaknesses, such as trendy advice that dates quickly and heavy advertising featuring half-naked women.

Key takeaways

• Centeno argues Esquire provides reliable style content at excellent value, with subscription prices around $10-12 per year compared to $150+ for imported magazines
• Centeno recommends keeping a physical magazine in your office or study as a portable reference for style ideas that can be reviewed in short intervals
• Centeno notes that approximately 20-25% of Esquire’s advice is trend-based and will become outdated, requiring readers to discern timeless guidance from seasonal content
• Centeno suggests Esquire should feature larger men more prominently to better serve the diverse body types of its readership
