Misspent Summers レビュー 

In an age where there is so much emphasis on having the newest and shiniest things, misspent summers provide a breath of fresh air and a reminder of the core of what makes up this beautiful sport; the people, racing, and the culture. Their books and magazines are truly works of art.

When a printed magazine, arriving months after the event, is more immersive, more captivating and more real than watching the event live on tv, you know the writers and photographers are doing something right. Incredible passion flows from everything James and his team do. You can read an article or a random mtb publication and know instantly that somewhere along the line Misspent summers are involved. The story of mtb runs deep. Keep doing what you’re doing guys. It’s amazing.

I find it difficult to describe what is so great about Misspent Summers, there is so much variety to what they do. From inside information on the world cup downhill and enduro racing, sent as it’s happening. It’s the only mailing list I subscribe to where i am always left wanting more content. To Wonderfully produced year books containing all the stories of the years racing and amazing photographs. Plus unique and quality merch that is more than just t-shirts and caps. Best of all if anything ever goes wrong (like your order getting lost in the mail) the founders respond to your emails and bend over backwards to make it right.

You can just tell that all the folk behind Misspent Summers do what they do because they love mountain biking, plain and simple. It seems that whatever they touch results in condensed passion, without even the faintest whiff of a bean counter or marketing BS. If only the world had more Misspent Summers.

The hype is high for the people of misspent summers. The quality of the written pieces, the outstanding pictures and of course having that vision to pull it all together to make some amazing products. First class with this company! It wouldn't be mtb without them. Mon the tea & biscuits and highly recommended the downtime collection.

After seeing the decay of our fave mag Dirt we had no other publication out there that understood the counter culture / rebellious side of riding & racing mountain bikes.

Until Misspent Summers came through with the goods, and my god have they delivered! Beautifully designed layouts & photography from arguably the best in the field, who are in the mix & give us a true glimpse from within the race tape.

We could just sit with a brew & peruse the images that capture ya imagination to want to get the hell out & ride that very second but then if ya take a minute to read the articles ya can see the dedication the whole crüe put into each & every book / zine that they release.

Truly amazing work, thats worthy of any coffee table.

I have been purchasing from Misspent Summers since the first DH book. Every year I have purchased the annual books and other items with no issues ever.

Great people making great things. Well worth your time and support! They in turn help support some of the best photographers, designers, writers, filmers, riders and more in the mountain bike scene.

Great publications, amazing collections of stories and photos.
Love everything this group is putting out.

Get all their magazines, photo books same zines, you will not regret it, I promise.

Cannot fault the work done by Misspent Summers! All the work i have by them is superb!

When Dirt Mag folded I found there wasn’t any MTB print that I related to. Luckily when Misspent Summers came along they filled that void with excellent photos, design, and stories all wrapped up in coffee bookesq magazines that you want to keep hold of. They continue to produce excellent books and products which are delivered quickly. Luckily my wife subscribes to their news letter so I always know that Christmas and Birthday are sorted. Highly recommend.
