How often do you dry clean suits/trousers?

Thankfully I don't have to wear a suit to work but I do wear wool suit trousers. I have two pairs which I alternate, and I dry clean them both every 2/3 weeks. So I get about 5-8 wears for each pair.

Do you think this is enough? Dry cleaning is expensive so if I thought it was OK to get another week or so out of them then I would.

And this is why I hate dry clean clothes. I always buy washable trousers for work and they get a wash after 2/3 wears. Dry cleaning would get too expensive.

My old boss had pretty much dry clean everything and would only wear anything once before his cleaner took his clothes to the dry cleaners most days. But you can do that when you're a millionaire.

I'm not sure I'd want to wear the same pair of trousers for 8 times without a wash.

Dry cleaning once a day seems ridiculous, and would undoubtedly age the fabric more rapidly.

Wool doesn't trap smells/moisture like poly/cotton blends so you can get away with wearing them for a lot longer before cleaning.
