What to know about Madhappy
Madhappy is a Los Angeles clothing and lifestyle brand founded in 2017 by Peiman Raf, Noah Raf, Mason Spector and Joshua Sitt, organized around mental-health conversation. Its core product is heavyweight fleece — hoodies, sweatpants, tees and caps — in muted, washed colorways with blanket-stitch logos and place-specific graphics. LVMH Luxury Ventures has held a minority stake since 2019; the company remains independent and largely direct-to-consumer. It runs The Local Optimist editorial platform and the Madhappy Foundation, opened a New York flagship in 2025, and has collaborated with Gap, Columbia, Lululemon, Juicy Couture and Marni.
How Madhappy fits
Overall fit
slightly large
Most shoppers report Madhappy fleece and tees run roomy and relaxed at true size, so the brand generally fits a half-size larger than a classic regular cut.
Tip: Take your usual size for the intended relaxed look, or size down one if you want anything close to a fitted drape.

By category
| Category | Runs | Shape | Size advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hoodies & sweatshirts | slightly large | relaxed, boxy through the chest with dropped-ish shoulders | Order your normal size for the intended oversized drape, or size down if you dislike extra volume or plan to wear it alone. |
| Jackets | slightly large | relaxed outerwear cut with room for layering | Take your true size unless you want a heavily oversized look, since layering room is already built in. |
| T-shirts & graphic tees | slightly large | boxy, midweight-to-heavy cotton with a structured body | Size down one if you want a cleaner, closer fit; stay true to size for the relaxed streetwear look. |
| Trousers & pants | true to size | relaxed sweatpant-style cut through the thigh | Stick with your usual waist size — the relaxed cut already provides room. |
