How often do you wash your jeans?

Reginald · 17 Jan 2010 at 16:35

Hmmm...I have quite a lot of jeans so I rotate them.. therefore they probably only get washed when I spill something on them...which probably averages every 3-5 wears. Either way trousers don't really get dirty/smell at all...if they do perhaps wash yourself after you use the loo!

a lot of you must have smelly crotches and butts.

Marry her. She sounds amazing.

Every week

i find this really confusing, as i'm on the clean them often side.

i've had a little search on google, and it's generally split 50/50

for those that wash them every few weeks, what's the mindset?

what keeps them away from the washing basket?

smelly workplaces, smokers, farts etc doesn't mean you haven't wiped your ass properly

really, think about it. things can be dirty without having to spill on them.

I wash mine about once a month. Depends if they start to smell a bit sweaty really

adambro47 · 17 Jan 2010 at 16:40

3-4 wears normally

manoz · 17 Jan 2010 at 16:40

Every 2 weeks if I wear them every other day or so, Or when they get visually bad.

..Oh pants and socks are an exception to the 'look or smell dirty rule' clean set each day for those

Definately THIS.

As for jeans, usually after about 5-6 wears but then again I am at work and change into them when I get home so I don't wear them for days on end.

Any more than 5-6 wears is a bit bad as they will end up smelling a bit.

Usually wear my 3-4 times, maximum a week before washing.

And for those who thinks she's a dirty cow lol, no she doesn't wear jeans 24/7

she's more of a skirt girl, so her wearing jeans would maybe be once a week, so her midset would be different to mine, as i wear mine 4-5 times a week before i wash them

When they start to look dirty, which was probably about once a term when at university.
I hate the feeling of just washed jeans.

I wash mine after 4/5 wears..

Jokester · 17 Jan 2010 at 16:44

I usually only wash my work (office) trousers every month or so, so maybe 15-20 wears, unless I've spilt something on them. Same with jeans.

Pants, socks and other clothing that covers sweaty areas I wash after one wear.

Swi1ch · 17 Jan 2010 at 16:44

'Good' shirts - 1 wear
'Scrub' shirts - 3 or 4 wears cus i'm usually just indoors
Good hoodies - 2 wears
Scrub hoodies - a week maybe
Jackets and jeans - 2-3 weeks. Too much hassle.

DB_SamX · 17 Jan 2010 at 16:44

Wear for 5/6 days a week.

Wash every 2 or 3 weeks, less if I feel they're dirty.

4p · 17 Jan 2010 at 16:45

Haven't washed my jeans for about 6 months lmao

Dirty student life :cool:

Cosimo · 17 Jan 2010 at 16:45

It depends on how often and where they're worn. Wearing them for a couple of days just sitting around or going out doesn’t mean they have to be washed immediately.

When they're dirty.
