Washing Clothes

Just kinda curious... How many times do you wear a piece of clothing before washing it?

For me:

Jeans: 3-4 days (I should probably wash them less often though...)
Hoodies: 2-3 weeks or when they get dirty

Everything else I wear for a day and then wash.

jeans-every few months when they get mud or something on em
shirts-whenever I get some food stuck on or it smells from being on the floor too long
hoodies-every few months when real dirty or smelly
socks-every time unless they're wool
boxers-every time unless their are no clean ones, then flip em inside out

holy fuck, my jeans and sweaters i almost NEVER wash, only when its clearly noticeable that theyre dirty. everything else like socks boxers and t-shirts i wear once and wash. my tolerance for dirty clothes has gone up significantly since i moved out and have to use the laundry room in my apt building, fuckin 9$ for a full laundry session

Jeans-if they get something on them, or are super-noticeably loose from wearing them so much
Shirts- every wear
boxers- every wear
socks- every wear
hoodies- almost never, really only if they ever get something on them

Till it starts to smell really funky and people won't sit next to me. Then I usually where them one more week and give them a solid run through the wash.

i wear my jeans then throw them in the hamper for my sunday wash...
i wear a different pair of jeans everyday and then at the end of the week wash all 6 or 7. Same with all my clothes except for hoodies

freezing jeans and hoodies works super well. I freeze all my jeans, except for my work/hike pair, which i still rarely wash, probably once at the beginning of the summer, and once at the end

im under the impression that a lot of people dont have a different pair of jeans for each day of the week though, i know i dont anyways, i only have like 5 pairs and theyre all different styles and colors/shades so sometimes it doesnt work you know
