Everyday Jean for All Occasions
Love these jeans and the way they fit. I wear them dressed up with boots for a work day or running around town with a sweatshirt. The quality remains durable after so many times being worn and washed.

A tiny snug but super flattering
The wide leg is my favorite cut from Madewell. This particular wash is lovely but seems to run a tiny bit more snug than my other pairs. They still look great, and the stitching on the back gives a nice shape to my booty. The buttons really aren’t as dramatically difficult as some reviews alluded. Super happy with these!

Love the fit!
Happy with my purchase. I’m usually a 25 and decided to go up a size based on the reviews! Glad I did because they fit perfect. For reference I’m slim petite / 124 pounds.

Comfortable, versatile, and super cute!
Love how versatile these jeans are! They are a non-stretch material so they don't get baggy throughout the day, yet they are still comfortable when moving around and sitting. Depending on the look you are going for they can be worn with sneakers, heels, boots, tanks, t-shirts, or a blazer. LOVE! 5'8 - 142lbs - size 28

The almost-perfect jean
I'll start by saying I lOVE these jeans and they make me look and feel amazing. That being said, the button hole is SUPER tight so they're tough to get on and off. I took them to a tailor to get that fixed, so hopefully that will help.

Cute wash
Super cute jeans, tried these in store and was happy to know if I ordered online I would have been my same size. The button closure kinda wonky on second button down, don’t wait to use the restroom when wearing these or you’ll be stressing to undo them. The fit I’d say is in between a wide leg and relaxed straight fit. I’m a 27, 5’5” and 145 with wide hips, great fit through thigh and waist fits like a glove.

Perfect wide leg - size down
I am a pear shaped wide hips girl, and I had to size down from my normal 26 in Madewell to 25 to get it to fit my waist. Agree with another review that the second hole from the top is nearly impossible to button but other than that these jeans are perfect. length is great for me too. A bit snug to start, but definitely feel like they wi perfectly give 25in waist 38in hips 5’6”

Nice jeans
The V yokes in the front and back are SO cute and make your waist look tiny. The wash isn't my favorite, a little too pebbly bright blue for me; would prefer a smoother or lighter wash I think. Wish these came in a different inseam. I'm not a fan of the 30" length; I want either 28 or 32 as I find that sneaker length awkward on me in a wide-leg, but the waist styling makes up for it here.

Button Problems
Cute jeans -- I was drawn to these because I liked the retro style. There is a slight problem with the buttons. Yes, the second button hole gets stuck frequently, but my main qualms were with how the buttons pulled when I was wearing the jeans. They've relaxed as I've worn them but there is still pulling. If I sized up the jeans would be too big, so something I just have to deal.

Super flattering
Super great pair of jeans, but had to size down. My biggest critique is the second button from the top is super difficult to unbutton. Overall, super flattering and hugs curves great.
