Print Version of Super Sexy ‘Butt’ Magazine To Relaunch Next Month

Butt magazine which ceased printing ten years ago is relaunching almost to the day next month and on its signature salmon colored newsprint paper.

Its tagline was the “Magazine for Homosexuals.”

In an announcement on their site: “BUTT’s surprise rebirth this spring begins a new conversation focused on cross-community solidarity and sexual freedom,” the publication founded and edited by Gert Jonkers and Jop van Bennekom said in a statement. “While queer visibility may be at an all-time high, BUTT’s candid intergenerational dialogues about contemporary life and love have been sorely missing these past 10 years.” In 2018, a documentary film titled After BUTT looked into the impact of BUTT‘s initial decade-long run.

The relaunch is being supported by fashion brand Bottega Veneta, who will be the sole advertiser.

“As a brand, sometimes you want to support something that you simply have a belief in and a fondness for — BUTT magazine is one of those things,” a Bottega Veneta spokesperson told WWD. “It has a meaning for many who work for Bottega Veneta, who grew up with the magazine and loved its cheeky view of the world. For many of us, no matter where we grew up on the globe, it made us feel at home. We hope it can do the same for a new generation.”

The magazine is set to feature the likes of Billy Vega, Felix Maritaud, Sunil Gupta, and more. It will address a “queer community in flux.”

The magazine will be made available in select stores worldwide and for order online after it launches during Paris Fashion Week in early March.
