This might be one of the worst issues of any magazine that I have ever seen. Man About Town has a new creative team and staff for this issue, few if anyone (other than editor-in-chief Philip Utz) remain from the former era. It's hard to understand how a magazine could decline so fast. When you think of Arena Homme+, at least their decline was gradual instead of sudden. It seems this magazine is aiming to be a Men's glossy (although the paper is semi-glossy and somewhat sandy).

This could be the case of a magazine finding itself before it becomes something grand, but as of now, Man About Town is no longer identifiable as Man About Town and has settled for a null typography and design.

Save your money and buy Hero.
