Madewell
Partial Rating:

Poor

This brand does not have enough public information about its sustainability efforts, so we can’t yet offer a detailed review.

Commons requires large brands to meet minimum standards across their materials use, circularity programs, and emissions accountability. Madewell is operated by JCrew Group, which does not report on materials use or emissions at the brand level.

        Our ratings are based on a scale from 1 (harmful) to 5 (best). How we rate →
