Pants & Chino Deals

The Athletic 1991 Straight-Leg Jean
Yes, it’s a straight-leg, but the nineties inspiration means it has a smidge more room to flow, while still making you look taller than any baggy jean could.
Madewell
Slim Jeans
The way the fashion pendulum swings, slim jeans will be back before you know it. Or maybe, you’re already ahead of the curve. Either way, Madewell’s are great.
Madewell
The 1991 Loose Straight Jean

Madewell Black Friday Deals FAQ
Black Friday is the Friday after Thanksgiving, which means that it falls on November 29 this year. But Black Friday deals are no longer confined to the single day, or even the weekend. Madewell’s Black Friday is already underway and will run all the way through the weekend, giving you a little extra time to peruse.
Cyber Monday traditionally happens the Monday after Black Friday, which means that it’s on December 2 this year. If prior years are any indication, Madewell will extend their Black Friday Sale through Cyber Monday. But if you’re looking to take full advantage of deals, we wouldn’t advise waiting all the way until Monday—things do sell out, especially when they’re on sale.
What are the best things to buy at Madewell?
Madewell jeans and pants are some of the best you can find anywhere, regardless of pricepoint, so we’d recommend starting there. But their shirting is great and varied, their knits are fantastic and their suit selection, while limited, features one of the best full-fitting options available.
Will Madewell have a Cyber Monday Sale?
If last year is any indication, they will, but we can’t guarantee that the deals will be the same or that the selection will be, either, which means that you shouldn’t wait all the way until Monday if you see something you’re into.
