Esquire Singapore

Sep 01 2022
Magazine

After winning three Media Publishing Association awards in 2013 and eleven in 2014, Esquire continues to be regarded as a beacon of excellent journalism in Asia with fifteen wins in 2015. We have no idea where we kept the awards, though. Founded in September 2012, the local edition is produced by a crop of respectable writers, photographers, illustrators and collaborators. Known for its powerful storytelling and ground-breaking photography, delivered in its signature wit, Esquire continues to steward men to their best in Singapore and beyond. The birth of Esquire dates back as far as 1933 in the States and since then, the title is known for pushing boundaries with literary giants such as Ernest Hemingway, F. Scott Fitzgerald and Norman Mailer finding their voice with the magazine.

Esquire Singapore

LET IT BURN

LISTEN TO YOUR TEENAGE DESIRES OF SEX, GEEKS AND REBELS • As he recalls his youthful fantasies, Neil Humphreys (aged 48) shares his tips on pursuing passions with his 18-year-old self, to cheer up the latter after a traumatic incident.

MAN TRENDS • Schlep bags for a life resumed.

JUST EAT IT

JUST DRINK IT

HEALTH ME OUT • What’s hot in health this month.

TECH IT OR LEAVE IT • It might be trending right now, but would you Tech It or Leave It?

MAN DOES • What’s on, what to play and where to go.

MUSE • An ode to the sexy, brilliant and talented women who inspire us. This month, meet Amanda Keisha Ang, DJ extraordinaire and musical siren for all seasons.

EVEN YOU CAN MAKE THIS DRUNKEN DUNK’N STRAWBERRIES • These 15-minute boozy, chocolate-dipped strawberries are the perfect twist to a romantic classic and sure to become your next date-night favourite.

FIVE MINUTES WITH… • Samuel Cooper, founder and CEO of Singapore’s newest hard-seltzer brand Ollie.

BOY WONDER • From his heartfelt performance in The Sun is Also A Star to a sultry cameo in Ariana Grande’s ‘Break Up With Your Girlfriend’ to now, becoming a breakout star of the teen-drama Riverdale; Charles Melton isn’t just challenging the cultural status quo, he’s redefining it.

the fire of desire • Abraham Maslow may have conquered the psychological world with his famed ‘Hierarchy of Needs’ theory in 1943, but a whole lot sure has changed when it comes to the notion of needs and wants in the modern world. Josh Sims examines how the burning embers of desire have evolved since then, and if Maslow’s pyramid truly stands the test of time.

Heartbreak Hotel • As modern lyrical poet, Pink once said: “Where there is desire, there’s gonna be a flame.” So what happens when the fire is set ablaze by heartbreak? We asked 25 men what love lost has taught them about what they desire from it next.

IT’S A MATCH!

THE MEN WHO SELL THE WORLD • Behold the male self-help guru. He’s proud, he’s loud, and he’s here to change your life, for the price of a few dollars and a big chunk of your consciousness. Alchemising their outsize personalities and the door-kicking affordances of the Internet, these self-styled paragons of betterment have come to dominate the discourse around contemporary masculinity and desirability in recent years. There’s a method to their madness and it seems to be working. The question is, why?

DON’T YOU WANT ME, BABY? • ‘Conventional’ doesn’t exist anymore. In the consciousness of popular culture, what constitutes desirable masculinity is fragmentary to the point of rendering the question pointless. Old rules, new rules-none of them hold water. Indran Paramasivam comes to terms with the new lay of the land.

IF YOU BUY JUST ONE THING • Berluti elevates the basketball shoe with its distinctive patinated savoir-faire, in the form of these must-have Playoff sneakers,

REALLY FANCY (UNDER) PANTS • Underwear from luxury...
