GQ Recommends

British GQ has spent the past 35 years tracking down the only places, stores, brands and pieces worth your time. With three decades worth of products flying through our fashion cupboards, being put forward for our Grooming Awards and beyond, we know how to buy the best and avoid those bargains that turn out to be anything but. Led by Robert Leedham, GQ's Senior Commerce Editor, our GQ Recommends department includes our resident menswear expert Heidi Quill and Daphne Bugler, who prides herself on recommending the best mattress that won't send you running for the masseuse. There's also Owen Gough, our grooming pro and beard trimmer aficionado and Christmas guru Jessie Atkinson who works on our best gifts for women picks all year round. Every product we cover in GQ Recommends is one we’d happily use ourselves, because we usually have. Our how we test guide has the full details, but whether it’s choosing the best suits or the best electric shavers in 2024, finding the best online furniture stores to shop at, navigating the best menswear sales or finding something worthwhile from best gift for mums, we’ve got you covered.
