What is the fit of Madewell's Perfect Vintage Jean?

The Perfect Vintage Jean is a tapered mom-jean style with Magic Pockets and a 9 1/4-inch mid-rise in the current product listing.

Does the Perfect Vintage Jean feel rigid or stretchy?

Madewell describes the current version as comfort stretch, combining the structure of rigid denim with a small amount of elastane. It is designed as a mid-rise tapered jean rather than a skin-tight stretch legging, so compare the size chart with your preferred fit.

Does Madewell sell clothing for men as well as women?

Yes, Madewell's current brand page explicitly presents denim for women and men, even though the brand became especially known for women's jeans. Its denim focus also includes sustainability programs such as the Blue Jeans Go Green partnership, which began for Madewell in 2014.
