The Leather Journal, run out of Southern California by Dave Rhodes, continues to be a cornerstone of our community. Founded in May 1987, it has delivered reliable coverage of clubs, events, contests, and organizations every single day for the past 34 years.

The Leather Journal is available both in print and online. If you ask me, there’s real value in a physical publication — something you can pick up, read at your leisure, and take with you. You’ll often find copies at major leather and kink events across the country. I picked up the latest issue (pictured here) at IML this year.

I just contributed myself, as a sign of support and respect.

Here’s to many more years of leather journalism!
