I just learned that my favorite mall is getting a Madewell store this Fall. I know that it's owned by J Crew, but little else. Has anyone ever actually shopped there? It is worth getting excited about? I'm sort of hoping that it'll be a good replacement for Martin +Osa.
I've only ever shopped online, and purchased 1 or 2 things (accessories, not clothing, so can't comment on quality). Their stuff is fairly J-Crewy, so I'm sure it is worth getting excited about. However, it isn't much cheaper, so it's not like the relationship Gap/ON have to to Banana.
