Black Inches (ISSN 1084-2462) was a US-based gay pornographic magazine featuring African-American men.

[1] The photos appearing in the magazine had various sources; some are obtained from companies that produce gay pornographic films (although most layouts depict individual men, rather than simulated "action" scenes).

Photographers whose work appeared in Black Inches include Anneli Adolfsson, Ken Kavanagh, Brian Lantelme, and Abednego (formerly associated with Mansurf.com).

D. J. Murphy's Sons Like Me starts with a reference to Black Inches in its first lines: "What the hell is this, Travis?"

[2]Other novels that mention the magazine include John Weir's What I Did Wrong[3] and Jim Norton's Happy Ending.
