ABOUT THE CHAP:

The Chap was founded in 1999 and was the longest-serving British magazine dedicated to the gentlemanly way of life. In 2025 The Chap became a members' club, turning its attention to social events, online content and books. Taking the best of 1920s, Roaring Twenties, 1930s, 1940s and 1950s menswear and wrapping it all up in a Victorian cloak of irony, wit and panache, this gentleman’s quarterly is inspired by such debonair icons as Terry-Thomas, David Niven, Peter O’Toole, Cary Grant, Tallulah Bankhead, Louise Brooks, Josephine Baker, Beau Brummell, Oscar Wilde, Sebastian Horsley, Sir Richard Burton, Peter Wyngarde, Patrick Macnee, Diana Rigg, Cillian Murphy and Helen McCrory, plus fictional chap archetypes such as John Steed, Emma Peel, Jason King, James Bond, Adam Adamant, Sherlock Holmes, Peaky Blinders, The Persuaders, Withnail and I.

The Chap is the members' club for the raffish, rakish, louche, decadent fellow who always wears a cravat, monocle, trilby, tweed three-piece suit, smoking a pipe and carrying an umbrella.
