Discussion: How often do you wash your clothes?

americanshameless

I'm talking about outdoor outfits, not general clothing you wear at home. For example, a shirt - how many different occasions does one must wear each to in order for it to be "washing machine ready" or does it entirely depend on what the state of the shirt is in at that moment. Does it differ with trousers, jeans, jackets etc? I'm only asking because they say over-washing your clothes = no-no as it ruins the quality and whatnot. Discuss.

In the summer, when I wear something once I wash it. Sweat<<
Other times it's 2 -3 times I wear it before I wash it, if it stays clean.
If it gets stained or something it's washed after the first time it's worn.

These rules do not apply to underwear.

- JED -

In normal conditions T-shirts 2 days (or 3 days at most). Troussers can resist more (especially jeans), like 4-5 days.

Everytime I wear them they get washed. Items that can't be washed get dry cleaned after each wear.

I can't imagine leaving the house in unwashed and unironed clothes

I don't wear the same thing after I wear it once. It's disgusting and old-fashioned.

Once... I mean if it's something like a pair of jeans or shorts and they don't have any marks on them, I might wear them twice but I iron them first.

Shirts, I only wear once before I wash them. Pants I might cut a little bit more slack and I could wear pants two times without washing them.

Well it depends really, because I wash clothes once, maybe very two weeks depending on how I feel. If its like a tank top or a thin shirt or something and I wear it, I'll rinse it out with some that Tide to go or something to that effect. With jeans I wear them maybe like 4-5 times before I wash them. I wear a lot of dark colors anyway so.

If it doesn't smell bad I just wear it over and over.

I have to wash everytime

I wash my shirts/blouses/dresses if I actually sweat. I wash my jeans/trousers/skirts when I feel like it.

Everytime, it's so ugh though whenever I wear like three or four different outfits throughout the day and I have an ass ton of laundry piling up. College is going to suck major balls.

I tend to wear things only once between washes. Even trousers and jeans and other pants. I do try to keep my coats clean in the colder months, though, and usually manage at least five wears before deciding they too need to be washed.

After every time I wear it, I wash it, EXCEPT if it's a shirt for work. In that case, I wear an undershirt so I'll wear the shirt 2 or 3 times before I wash it.
