Get a pair of tummy-taming Madewell jeans for less than Levi's — they're $42 (nearly $100 off!) for Presidents' Day
These coveted skinnies have a generous 10-inch rise, slimming pockets, and plenty of stretch.
Want to get in on today's Presidents' Day sales, but not sure what to buy? Instead of throwing away cash on something random, why not go with something you know you'll get plenty of use from? A pair of great-fitting, flattering jeans would certainly fit the bill, right? Right now, sale items are an extra 30% off at Madewell's Presidents' Day sale, and these highly rated high-rise skinny jeans are on sale for $42, down from $138, with code EXTRAEXTRA.
If you're looking for jeans that flatter a less-than-toned tummy and don't create any muffin top, try these Madewell skinnies. They feature a 10-inch rise that keeps your midsection cradled and supported.
Why is it a good deal?
As someone who stalks Madewell jeans on a regular basis (hey, no judgment), I can tell you that it's rare to find a pair for less than $50. Sometimes you can score a trendy cut or weird color on the cheap, but a classic pair of skinnies in a timeless wash for $42? This deal is basically unheard of.
Still need convincing? Madewell jeans are usually way more expensive than Levi's — I'm talking around $60 more expensive. But for Presidents' Day, these Madewell high-rise skinny jeans are actually almost $30 less than these comparable Levi's skinny jeans.
Why do I need this?
Don't believe all the hype about skinny jeans being "out." Skinny jeans will never go out of style because they look good on lots of different body types and can be paired with a variety of tops and shoes. Madewell shows the high-rise skinny jeans on models who wear size 26, 29, and 32, and they all look great in the jeans with heels, sneakers, and flats.
If you've never owned a pair of Madewell jeans, this is your chance to find out why so many people love them. These skinnies are made from premium denim that has tons of stretch, so they move with you without losing their shape. As if that isn't good enough, they feature Madewell's Magic Pockets, which aim to hold in your tummy for a slimming, smoothing effect.
What reviewers say
Customers give these high-rise skinny jeans 4.1 out of 5 stars, with many praising their quality and comfort.
"This was my first-ever purchase of Madewell jeans, and wow wow wow I am never going back!" one reviewer raved. "I've struggled with finding a jean that flattered my mom pouch, and this truly held me in. You could definitely feel the thickness and quality of the jeans, but I never felt overheated while wearing them. Compared to other jeans and brands I’ve had, I can already tell these are infinitely better."
Another reviewer wrote, "These are the best jeans I have owned. Fit perfectly, hug in all the right places but still stretchy and comfy enough to wear all day!"
"I am normally a 14W in Madewell jeans, but decided to try their regular sizing (no changes to body) and first ordered a pair of these in 33 and they were big," advised a final shopper. "I sized down to a 32 and they are still big. I've decided to keep them to avoid another order, but could easily go down to a 31."
Skinny jeans are a versatile silhouette that will never really go out of style. Keep them casual with sneakers and a sweater or tee, or dress them up with heels, a blazer and a red lip.
