The verdict
Fit
Plaid usually reads in structured wovens. Expect a midi with a neat silhouette and some body definition. Check if the waist is high-rise (typical of Good American); likely runs true to size.
Quality
Woven plaid at this price is competently made. Look for flat seams and a balanced weave that resists pilling. Plaids can show wear at stress points (hip seams) over years, but Good American's finishes are generally solid.
Is the price fair?
At $101, this is mid-market for a structured midi. Comparable plaids from lower-tier brands are $40–60; designer versions run $200+. Fair value for the brand positioning and cut.
Best for
Office wearers and trend-aware casual dressers who want a plaid midi for fall/winter layering and professional polish.
Care
Machine wash in cool water inside-out to preserve the plaid's crispness; tumble dry on low or lay flat.
What owners report about Good American skirts
Third-party testers report Good American's skirts ride on the same soft, high-stretch denim as the rest of its line: one tester called the denim mini "probably the most comfortable denim skirt that I have ever tried on." Reviewers say pieces look alarmingly small off the body but stretch to fit true to size once on, and that the fabric loosens slightly after a couple of wears. Long-term owners report the denim holds up well over years, though price complaints recur — reviewers note items running $160 and up. The size range is unusually wide, running from 00 into plus sizes.
- Strengths
- Very comfortable, soft stretch denim in one of the widest size ranges reviewers cover, with long-term owners reporting it keeps its shape over years of wear.
- Watch out for
- The stretch fabric loosens after a few wears, sizing varies between styles, and the price draws consistent complaints.
- Sizing
- Order your usual size even though pieces look tiny off the body — the stretch fits true to size on, and since the fabric loosens slightly with wear, sizing up tends to backfire.
