Goodbye Skinnies!!!
I love these jeans. As a person with athletic legs and who was soooo tired of skinny jeans, I was sooo ready for these. And I love them. High rise and the legs are truly straight. Not the "straight" (really skinny) jeans. Finally.

Finally!
Finally the perfect fit for my curvy body. I have never had luck buying jeans online. But, these are a winner! I have thicker legs and have been waiting for a more relaxed fit that is flattering too. They are so comfy. A little high wasted on me, which I love. Super cute with a tucked in button up top. I just wish they didn’t run out so quickly. I would order more in a heartbeat.

Best Pair as always!
Daughter loves the pants so much. It fits her all in right places. Perfect fit just like on photo. The color is great too, easy to pair with any top! Now, the real problem, she loves it so much, i need to find another similar ones. Thanks Madewell! Please make more of this style!

Run small
Got my regular size 25 and I had to go up a size (26) They are super cute and long (I’m 5’7) I usually get talls but this one has the perfect inseam length.

nice
I bought my usual size 27. They fit great. The waist is tight and not stretchy but it doesn't constrict or feel terrible. I'm 5'4 and 140#.

LOVE!
Love these jeans! Great high rise, nice lightweight denim in a classic medium wash, not too wide of a leg, and the standard length hits me at a nice ankle length. For reference, I'm 5'9" and usually take a long length, so it was a nice change to be able to pick up the standard length in store and not need to special order. I usually take a 32 in Madewell jeans without stretch, but these were better in a 31.

just what I was looking for!!
I just bought these jeans in-store yesterday, and I already love them! I was looking for a good pair of jeans with a straight leg style, so when these were released I knew I wanted to try them. They fit true to size for me (compared to other madewell perfect vintage jeans) and seem to have the perfect amount of stretch... just a little give so that you can get them over your waist and sit down comfortably in them, but not too much to where they will stretch out easily. The high waist is super flattering and the length is perfect on me - a tiny bit cropped because I'm tall (about 5'10"), but just the perfect stylish amount. I love the straight-leg style so much I'm already considering buying a second pair in a different wash!

Comfy relaxed jeans
Great fit although looser than expected, but already feel like an old favorite.

Great look, not for hour-glass figures
I was so excited when I ordered these jeans. I live in another country that madewell doesn't ship to so I was excited when a family member could bring them over on a recent trip. I already had a favorite pair of madewell jeans in size 32 that fit like a glove so I thought these would be similar. Unfortunately, it is impossible to zip these over my hips. Ladies with hourglass figures, double check the measurements before purchasing to make sure of your size.

Runs small, strange fit
I was excited to buy my first Madewell jeans and unfortunately am very disappointed. These run very small - I am a size 28 in jeans normally from places like Everlane and Reformation, and even in Madewell's own pants (non-jeans) I am a 27 or 28. I purchased a 28 thinking they'd fit - I can barely button them! For reference, I am 5'8" and 150. On top of that, the top is tight around my thighs and butt when I expected a looser more relaxed fit. If you still want to buy these after this review, I would size up at least 1 or 2 sizes.
