Ordered Madewell jeans for my wife before Christmas after seeing very strong reviews on a number of online sites (she has trouble finding jeans that fit); unfortunately Madewell took over three weeks to send anything to me (after I paid extra for delivery within 5 days) and gave me completely the wrong item. Throughout the process, their customer service has been extremely poor and I am still waiting for them to send me forms to allow me to return the item. They also are not confirming that they will refund the extra postage cost for the speedy delivery, and consistently ignore my emails. Without a doubt the worst customer service I have ever had from a retailer!

Just to reiterate the other reviews here, they have horrible shop policies. You have 30 days for returns, even if you ship it 10 days before the due date, they don't receive it. Then you get a gift card, JCrew does the same, over them. Also, I've gotten three pairs of pants and the fits are awful.

I really don't understand why they try to make us feel better by making the jeans like 2 sizes bigger than the marked size? I don't want to have to use the size guide and then get a completely different size. Just make the jeans the normal actual size as marked! Like cool I'm super glad that they have extended sizing and all but when I order an xs short I don't expect them to be like size 30... And the size 25 jeans were 28 inches around. How is that a 25? WHAT IS GOING ON?

Tried to order online, but the discount code would not work nor would free shipping with a purchase well over $150. The customer service agent was rude and unhelpful. I did not place an order. Would rather go elsewhere.

Madewell clothes and shoes are just as the name suggests - made well. The clothes are a sort of cross between JCrew and Anthropologie, with more like Club Monaco or even TopShop sorts of prices. The store itself is way too overwhelming for me to go into -- it's a bit like Urban Outfitters meets Abercrombie (yeah, it can be bad, especially the Soho store). Since I more or less know my sizes here, shopping online is a whole lot more pleasant. Everything's super easy and reliable. There's a flat $5 rate for shipping, no matter how much you get, so that's a perk.

I order 2 night suits on 19th Nov and still not delivered. It's been almost 2 months. I didn't even get a refund. I drop an email also at customer support no reply from them. Madewell is cheating people by taking money. Don't be fool and don't buy stuffs from here.
