Esquire Singapore is the leading publication for the sophisticated thinking man.
Our mission? To inspire men to build a life that matters.

Founded in September 2012, Esquire Singapore 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.

Esquire was first published in the United States in 1933 and, since then, has developed a reputation for pushing boundaries and mentoring talent—with literary giants such as Ernest Hemingway, F Scott Fitzgerald, and Norman Mailer (amongst many others) all finding their voice with the magazine.

Once that happens, a small video appears (which can be formatted to most shapes). Once the video is tapped, it expands to a bigger view. Vidy videos enable the user to watch the video while remaining on the same webpage without leaving it.
