How long do you wear clothes before washing them?

Question

With the exception of t shirts, underwear and socks of course. Slacks I might wear at least twice, some collared shirts twice. Sweatshirts...4 or 5 times. Jeans, forget about it....2 weeks. Who agrees? (or thinks this is gross)

Answer 1

I agree with you completely! Sometimes I wear sweatshirts even longer tho...as long as they don't look dirty!

Answer 2

Things that get gross quickly (socks, boxers) I wear once then wash. Sometimes I wear t-shirts a couple times before washing, as they don't tend to get nasty when I just sit around the house (which I tend to do a lot). Sweatshirts I don't wash until I absolutely have to (i.e. they stink... bad), especially if it's brand new. I try to prolong that soft, new hoodie feel for as long as I can, it's just not the same after you wash it. I've been known to go months without washing a new hoodie. Jeans and other pants I've sometimes neglected over a month. In fact, it's been a while since I've washed the pants I'm wearing. I actually meant to wash them Sunday, but forgot... whoops.

But if I get all gross and sweaty, whatever I'm wearing goes directly in the hamper with no chance for a round-two.

Answer 3

bllue jeans, i'll wear a couple times.. i work in an office, so i will wear button ups twice sometimes, but it depends on where it ends up after work.. sometimes i just throw it in the dirty clothes hamper.. once in there it's dirty.. underware and socks, one time and one time only.. well, socks, if i'm short on socks and haven't done any laundry, i'll rewear work socks, but not basketball socks.. like i said, i work in an office building.. comfortable atmosphere all day here.. understhirts, once.. sometimes twice.. i smell them before rewearing them.. ha.. but no more than twice.. pj's, a week is good.. that's just cause i may wear sleep pants one night and basketball shorts the next night.. but that's also all i wear.. i think you're doing pretty good.. maybe the jeans can be washed after a week? maybe? ha.. if not, i understand.. i don't wear sweatshirts.. slacks, twice.. sometimes i'll stretch it 3, depends on laundry.. ha..

Answer 4

I'll wear pants 2 or 3 times before washing them. I normally wash shirts after 1 time.

Answer 5

I wear everything once and then wash it...with the possible exception of sweat shirts that are put on over shirts only when you go outside. I'd wash them after 2 -3 days.

Answer 6

I try to make things last, I usualy wait until my pants have something on them, and I usualy wear my shirts twice before I was them. I
ts hard to wash your cloths all the time when it cost two bucks a load and everyone in your apartment complex is shady. Plus its better to save water by not washing cloths that you only wore for a couple hours.

Answer 7

Most of the time, once, with the exception of blue jeans. I usually can wear a pair of jeans two days in a row before washing them.

Answer 8

Depends what you're doing and how dirty you get. If you're getting all sweaty, it's gross. If you're pretty clean, it's cool. 2 weeks sounds a little long to me, I wear jeans 2 or 3 times at the most before washing, but it's because they get dirty by then.

Answer 9

T-shirts 2 days at most
Trousers about a week

Answer 10

2 days

Answer 11

the sweatshirt and jean thing gross....2 times for any outer wear is plenty...however everything smells and looks nicer if cleaned with every use, u can tell if jeans worn more than once.
