Here’s something we’re genuinely looking forward to. Fantastic Man’s 14th issue will be in stores later on this week and, as you can see, they’ve got Raf Simons on the cover. We haven’t read it yet but if Fantastic Man’s stellar history is anything to go by, this issue will be a doozy. (Fantastic Man)

Bound to come around: Fantastic Man Magazine works with The White Briefs company on some underwear for the gents. Beyond the briefs, the collection offers some white t-shirt tops. “‘Worn as outerwear or underwear, the organic mesh cotton pieces are just a delight for all to enjoy’ say Fantastic Man. The collection can now be bought worldwide from a selection of retailers including Colette, Opening Ceremony, Storm, Nitty Gritty, and Hunting & Collecting.” (huh)

Beckham takes the cover of issue 13 of Fantastic Man. In fact, they’re calling him the “most famous man in the world.” Could be true. He’s at least one of the world’s best known footballers. In their words: “Perhaps the most famous gentleman in the world, Mr. BECKHAM is freshly coiffed care of ALAIN PICHON, and photographed at a pie and mash shop in his native London by ALASDAIR McLELLAN. Other notable profiles include: the new director of the TATE MODERN, CHRIS DERCON, who discusses the fantastic prospects for the museum’s upcoming HERZOG & DE MEURON extension; owner of THE INDEPENDENT newspaper, the media oligarch Mr. EVGENY LEBEDEV.” Find it on newsstands soon. While you’re there pick up other periodicals and support print. #serious

Our favourite mens mag, Fantastic Man, have just relaunched their website. It used to be a holding page – industry shorthand for ‘go out and buy the magazine’ – but now they’ve relaunched as a full on interactive website, albeit one with a decidedly irreverent approach. The forum consists of commentable reader questions, daily recommendations and a monthly outfit post entitled ‘the look’. While it’s extremely early days (the site only launched yesterday) it looks like it’ll be the perfect compliment to the print magazine.

The latest issue of Fantastic Man is hitting the newsstands now. The Dutch mens lifestyle magazine continues to trailblaze a path across editors desks from London to Dubai. Issue #9 features Bret Easton Ellis on the cover and houses articles on cologne, headgear, interviews, and more. Find it now on newsstands.

Twitter has been a jumping point for everything from breaking news to Rapper disputes. Now it’s the catalyst in Style Salvage’s interview with the deputy editor of Fantastic Man, Charlie Porter. In the extensive interview, everything from the recession to his favourite fashion moments and his thoughts on how menswear is covered in newspapers.

“I personally think it’s an outrage that newspaper editors completely ignore men’s shows. They should do both. Fashion is fashion.”
