Perfect and classic
I’m not a 90s former supermodel - older than that - but these are perfect for me. I’m slender and pretty fit, but jeans haven’t fit me the way I like in decades. I stumbled on these in the store and grabbed them. I love the color - classic. Just enough stretch and good heft in the fabric.

Wanted to love, but hate these!
Madewell jeans usually fit me like a glove but this cut is all wrong for me. They look so good on the model but for me, the torso is so long, the back goes into my butt crack, and the pockets are way too high on my butt. They are very unflattering. Love the color and the style on the model, but they just don't look like this in real life.

Large and Stretchy
Cotton blend is too stretchy and shows dimples everywhere after the first gentle wash. Otherwise, they run 1-2 sizes too large. I sized down 1 and they are still loose.

cute jeans but runs slightly smaller than usual
I have many pairs of madewell’s perfect vintage jeans. Typically wear 28 for a snug fit and 29 for a looser relaxed fit. Ordered a size 29 and it fit more like a 28. Still cute and love the color so I kept it.

Not my favorite
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Not my favorite madewell jeans. Fit tighter in the thighs than other pairs I have which isn’t the best look with the lighter wash. Kept them but aren’t a go to.

Nice!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the style and color. 5'6, 117lbs, size 25 is fitted, but not too tight at all. Fits perfect.
