Is it Christmas without an annual to curl up with? Not for us.

The OSS turns 20 this year, and we’re celebrating with our first printed magazine — a beautifully designed collector’s edition of Elsewhere, gathering stories, photographs and reflections from two decades of swimming, adventure and community.

Inside: long reads, field notes, and the voices of swimmers and writers who helped shape the movement — from moonlit seas to city harbours, and the quiet waters in between.

Printed in the UK on recycled paper and made to keep, this anniversary issue makes the perfect gift for the swimmers and dreamers in your life (including you).

Available now to pre-order. Orders will ship the week of 17 November. Customers from Northern Ireland, the United States, and the EU will be able to order from the end of November — we’ll email subscribers when this is available.

Orders will be shipped by our distribution partner Newsstand.
