How many times would you wear a pair of trousers....

Jeans ? 10 to 15 days. They start to look a weird shape, and washing them makes them tight again.
Suit ? 20 times (have you seen the cost of dry cleaning)
Work smart ? 10 days

Have to say, I wear my jeans for weeks on end...they don't smell, they're not dirty, they cause me no issues. When I spill something down them or otherwise mess them up they'll get washed...

Anything I wear on my top, however, shirts, tees etc get a max of 2 or 3 days' wear before they're washed - less in the summer.

People saying a long time - what about t shirts?

I would only wear a top or t shirt once before washing!

I tend to only wear t-shirts once, but do sometimes stick them on again if I'd only worn it for a couple of hours.

Jeans I wash less often, and the starchier the denim the less often I wear them (so my skinny jeans have a cotton mix so get washed more often). Hoodies I only wash when they are filthy (I only wear them about the house)

OH would never wash his jeans or hoodies if he could get away with it. I lose track of which he wears so just periodically (6 monthly-ish) bung them all in the wash when he's not in the house Mind you I don't think he'd ever wash bedding or towels either.

I probably wear my jeans for about 10 days before washing them. I wear jeans so often I think they'd be seriously worn out if I washed them every day.

I don't really wear normal trousers apart from my work ones which I wash every other day.

OH's on the other hand get washed as and when he bothers to put them in the washing basket :rotfl:

I don't have any jeans but will wear my trousers for 7 days before washing. My husband rarely changes his, I put them in the wash and he then wonders why.

*max*

Jeans, after 3 or 4 wears unless visibly dirty.
Tops, every 2 wears unless worn on a night out, in which case they go straight in the wash.
Knickers, washed after one wear and changed every day ( who doesn't?).
Bras, every 2 or 3 wears, and the more "delicate" ones get hand-washed.

I think the look of the garment influences my laundry regime as much as anything else. Frequency of changes of clothes and function are other factors. One or two showers a day deals with hygiene element more than the laundry.

Work type suits - usually dress & jacket - dry clean only - as much as it can take before looking 'lived in'. Perhaps half a dozen times.

In summer I wear a lot of linen dresses/tops/skirts/trousers - worn once then wash or it looks a mess.

Casual clothes - tops/jeans/skirts a couple of evenings if worn after work or one whole day. May wear jeans two days running but nothing else.

Undies change once or twice a day.

Anything worn when cleaning out the chickens gets taken off immediately afterwards and washed straight away.

Jeans 2-3 times max - besides the barfness of wearing something that's been around ladybits for any longer than that, they don't feel comfortable.

Same for work trousers

Linen trousers just once, they look terrible by the end of the day

Skirts 2-3 max, I don't wear them often and always seem to spill something down me.

Tops/t-shirts only once, can't imagime putting a dirty top on a nice clean body

Cardies/Jumpers 3-4 times, unless I've been mucky.

Undies, goes without saying
