Instead of books currently marketed by big publishers, Slightly Foxed tends to examine older and more obscure titles. The title, "Slightly Foxed" refers to a description of a book's physical quality, commonly used in the second-hand book trade.

As well as the magazine itself, Slightly Foxed has a books imprint,[3] and between 2009 and 2016 ran a bookshop on London's Gloucester Road.[4]

The magazine offices are based in London.
