Blue Jeans Go Green

Posted on May 14, 2018

RECYCLE YOUR
DENIM WITH US

In partnership with Cotton’s Blue Jeans Go Green™ program and Habitat for Humanity.

Team Madewell helped Habitat for Humanity insulate an LA home.

Stop by one of our stores with your pre-loved pairs (from any brand: the bootcuts from high school, the baggy ones from your skater days, the bright red skinnies from who knows when). Our friends from Cotton’s Blue Jeans Go Green™ program will turn them into housing insulation for organizations like Habitat for Humanity—and we’ll give you $20 off new ones.*

HOW IT WORKS

Step 1

Grab an old pair of jeans.

Step 2

Bring them into one of our stores.

Step 3

We’ll turn ’em into housing insulation.

Step 4

You’ll get $20 off a brand-new pair.*

Denim Recycling By The Numbers

716,839 pairs

of your jeans recycled since our partnership began—and counting! That’s a bunch of bedazzled back pockets.

80 Percent

of the insulation made by Cotton’s Blue Jeans Go Green™ program comes from post-consumer recycled denim.

956 HOUSES

could be built with insulation made from your passed-on pairs.

358 TONS

of waste saved from a landfill because you recycled instead of tossed (that’s a lot of closet space).

Infinite

good vibes from giving back.
