Interesting. Witty. Great fun. The sartorial guide that counts...

Dashing, smart looking magazine/app

Wonderfully, witty, always tongue-in-cheek, delightful publication.
App is free of frills, yet it does what it is meant to do. Magazine is certainly for a niche audience, but those that fit the profile will forever wonder how they ever lived without it.

Bravo, Chap, bravo!

Disappointed

I have tried to purchase back issues and they have not downloaded even though they have already deducted the price from my account. I was about to purchase an issue and it confirmed I have now purchased a different issue. So far I have now purchased 3 issues 1 by mistake and none have downloaded. Overall rather disappointed with the iTunes Store and the magazine.

Awfully Good Show

Pip pip and all that. Indispensable.

What Spy magazine would have been, had they been well dressed. No wonder they folded, uncreased. Still The Chap remains.

Why am I having to re-buy this?

I love Chap. I've been reading it for the past year, but for some reason I now have to re-purchase it in the App Store. What is going on?
