These New $135 Madewell Jeans Have "Holds-You-In Sorcery"

When Madewell says it has designed its softest jeans yet, you can bet our ears perk up. The brand's latest newsletter was dedicated to the new High-Rise Skinny Jeans in Lunar Wash ($135), and Madewell has some seriously high praise for the new launch.

"Our famous perfectly faded black jeans are made of best-of-the-best denim, in this case a soft-to-touch blend woven with Tencel lyocell," the product description reads. "The 9" rise has a supersleek effect, thanks to a tricky detail—Magic Pockets in front that offer an extra layer of holds-you-in sorcery for the slimmest, smoothest look yet." Plus, the jeans come in an impressive array of sizes, with petite, regular, and tall options ranging from sizes 23 to 37. Convinced you need a pair? We thought so. Scroll down to shop the new arrivals, as well as Madewell's other worthy alternatives.

Erin Fitzpatrick
Senior News Editor

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 12 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of senior news editor (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
