Monocle Magazine Issue No. 166

If there’s one thing to know about Monocle, it’s that they’ve got both depth and range, covering everything from geopolitics to groovy shopping destinations. Founder Tyler Brûlé also started iconic style magazine Wallpaper* and did stints at the Financial Times and BBC Four, so you know both sides of the brain are covered in great detail. Issue No. 166, in their words: “Ready to go? Great. Because Monocle’s September issue is all about getting out there, covering fresh ground and seeing the world anew. We survey the world of transport, from the leading presidential jets and futuristic sea gliders to Europe’s bike-building capital and the appeal of the mini Microlino. Plus: Mongolia’s geopolitical balancing act, Fendi’s artisanal investment and America’s poet laureate.”
