River Plate

Argentina's most successful football club, River Plate is about so much more than just the beautiful game. A pillar of the sport, scouring the nation for the greatest talent, this is an institution, a club whose stadium carries the most fitting of names. 

So where do you begin with such history? Well, that was the challenge for the team, and it started with a epic Javier Arrés cover. Between that and page 140, you'll find the stories that matter, from the legends of yesteryear to the heroes of today. It's been a rocky road to dominance, but what a story it is.

Inside you'll find the usual: loads of commissioned art, some of the best writing around, and timeless design. This, like all our work, is a magazine that's meant to be kept.
