Summer Jean

Madewell’s Relaxed Taper Jeans in Marcel Wash have a clean, laid-back look that’s easy to dress up or down. Designed to hit above the ankle, they offer a modern silhouette that pairs well with sneakers, loafers, or boots. The Marcey wash gives them a versatile, lived-in feel, making them a great everyday jean with effortless style.

Different color, different shape

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought in black, sits great. Then, bought in Marcey wash, and it sits too loose.Problem is that a friend brought it to me, and and I don’t live in the US, so I can’t replace it.I suggest you do try them on, as they are not consistent with their sizes.It’s disappointing as they are not cheap ones.

perfect casual jean

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My boyfriend absolutely loves these jeans and wears them all year round! The light blue denim wash is perfect for a casual summer outfit, but also goes super well for a very 90s winter look with a chunky sweater and sneakers. He wears them all the time and the cotton is super soft and a year-round versatile pair of jeans.

Relaxed Taper Forever

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These jeans look amazing on my boyfriend. He used to only wear skinny jeans and I got him into a style that fit his body type better and accentuated all the right areas. These are the ones! He’s wider in the hips and skinnier in the calves so these help to give some volume on the lower end of his body. He wears a 35/32 and is 6’3, 200lbs

Blue Tapered Jeans

Great jeans!

I got these for my boyfriend (5’9”) who has a hard time not looking absolutely swallowed in non-slim jeans. These are great! He now has two washes because they are not way too long and are still loosish without being huge. Great find!

Like, not love

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like these jeans but don't love. As a matter of fact, I forgot I had them until I came to do another review. They gap at the waist some. I will wear again but they aren't the first pair I grab (I have a LOT of Madewell jeans too).

Great jeans

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bough these for my son who is hard to fit. They had lots of different sizes, lenghts and styles. These jeans fit him beautifully!

Great jeans!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Husband loves these jeans. I knew he would. They are solid denim, nice and rigid, like jeans should be. The wash is perfect and the fit is perfect. He is slim, small butt.

Great jeans

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love these jeans because they have a good taper/narrow leg opening, but room in the legs and seat. These are perfect. I like that they’re not “skinny” like some tapered and they have a little stretch in the fabric but still feel like real denim. I’ve tried many different brands, but these are the best, by far, for a great fit, good construction and materials and at a price point that’s not outrageous. I just wish they would make these in more colors. Highly recommend.

As Advertised if Not Better

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ordered these after trying in store and they deliver on being a great mix of relaxed fitting and comfortable, without diving into the baggy or loose fitting trend that is so popular now. Fit very timelessly and work well for somebody like myself who has troubles typically with bigger thighs. They accommodate larger thighs while still maintaining a more tapered silhouette so it doesnt make you feel too baggy or loose at the ankle or lower leg. Almost like a straight leg fit for the thicker thighed guys!

Perfect

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Runs larger than my usual size. Sized down and fit perfectly. Wear jeans all the time. Will buy more. Like the wash and very comfortable relaxed fit.

Washed Out Pictures

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm not sure why they washed out these pictures so much when all of the other color offerings are much more true to tone. The last picture where it shows just the pants (not the model wearing the pants) is much more accurate to the color. These are a medium wash. If you want a lighter pair of jeans, go Lockhart. There is also Perry Wash which I think is also a medium wash (maybe a bit more medium dark) but has a slightly different color tone. Rather than being tradition blue, the Perry has less of the bright blue classic denim color. Back to the jeans, I really like the fit and the style. Coming from someone who more slim fit jeans that landed at the hips (usually a 32x30), I had to tweak my to size as these land above the hips (now a 31x32 or a 30x32 depending how the thighs feel). The bit of taper at the ankle makes these feel a bit more fitted and give a cleaner look. Feeling really good wearing them and as they are Madewell, I expect they are going to be around a long time
