Love these!!

These jeans are perfect for busy mamas or anyone who wants stretch in their jeans! Super comfortable and true to size. I am 5’5, 135 and got a size 27 (4). I do have an athletic build with thicker thighs so it’s hard to find jeans that fit. Highly recommend!! And the price is so great too.

Nope not a winner!

I had very high hopes for these after reading several reviews from both this website and various bloggers. The rise was much taller than 9 inches. And being cursed with a short waist, these simply won't work. Also not all that stretchy or soft for that matter. Back pockets were nice but not worth $$. I spend a lot more on my jeans ordinarily and it's not hard to see why. Hard pass for me. I've not had good luck with Madewell jeans.....thankfully I could return them!

Defective Pair?

I have a number of roadtrippers and have the same size in them all, these barely went on. I’m not sure what happened to these. I’m not even sure the next size up would fit! Bummer because I was looking for a darker color and love my other pairs, but these will have to go back.

Dream Jeans!

I really wasn’t even looking for a new pair of jeans but recently bought some button fly’s at Madewell and then these caught my eye. I must agree 100% with the other reviewers...these are absolutely fantastic! Yes, they are “skinny” and they have the most comfortable fit and stretch. The higher waist feels so comfortable and ensures you don’t have a surprise muffin top! Lol! Hope to enjoy these for a long time! I am 5’3” and weigh 124 and ordered the 26.

Great for new moms!

These jeans are the best around. Super soft, comfortable, and stretchy. Great for a post-pardum momma, especially given how high waisted it is!

Great fit, a little loose in the waist

Very comfortable, but sometimes have to adjust the waist since its larger than expected

The only jean I'll ever need.

I have purchased this jean in both the Jansen wash and the black. I'm usually a size 27 in most jeans (5' 6" 123lbs) but in Madewell I go for a 25. I bought my first pair of Roadtrippers in a 26, and they were just a tad too big, so I sized down again at my next purchase. I will say though, the black ones have less stretch I guess, I would probably buy those in a 26 next time, to make them fit a bit better. Can we please, please restock the Roadtripper soon, I'm in serious Roadtripper withdrawal over here, they're the only jeans that fit me just right, I miss them!!
