Chasing Mags was not born as a cold business project, but rather as the natural evolution of a personal obsession with paper, visual culture, and cult editorial design.
We are absolute devotees of imported magazines. We are passionate about the exquisite layouts, the feel of the paper weights, the art direction, and the unique way in which publications (especially Japanese ones) capture architecture, lifestyle, and global trends. We started collecting and consuming them out of pure genuine interest, fascinated by what was happening on the other side of the map.
However, as collectors in Europe, we soon faced the same reality as always: obtaining these international titles became an odyssey. Confusing purchasing processes, unpredictable customs, high shipping costs, and, worst of all, the uncertainty of whether the magazine would arrive battered or creased after weeks of travel.
We realised that there was no option on the continent that offered total security, care, and simplicity in the process. Thus, Chasing Mags was born: with the firm idea of facilitating access to this editorial universe, ensuring a smooth, secure, and transparent purchase from the very first click.
We do this because we believe there are stories and designs that deserve to be experienced on paper. Thank you for being part of this quest.
Chasingmags imports Japanese magazines directly from Japan. Brutus, Casa Brutus, Popeye, Go Out, Men's Fudge — original issues of cult publishers you won't find in any Spanish bookshop. Shipped from Spain.
