How many times do you wear your clothes?

redhead2466 · November 2011

Before washing them, that is. I just saw an ad on tv (tide, possibly?) that said ppl wear their clothes an avg of two times before washing.

Assuming they haven't been puked on by baby, and not been soiled by poop, pee etc... Say for instance a pair of jeans, on average how many times would you wear before washing? I usually wear my jeans 4-5 times, shirts probably 2 times, maybe more for sweaters.

Kids clothing is a whole different story...if I can get more than one wear out of DDs clothes it's a miracle, lol.

I can wear my jeans probably five time at the most, but somehow I always end up with a stain or dirt by the second time.

My shirts can only be worn once or they feel icky to me. Sweatshirts and jackets can be worn 3-4 times before I wash.

Pants are basically until they lose their fit, so jeans 4-5 times, but other pants 1-3 times. I'm a sweaty beast, so shirts are usually just one time except sweatshirts/thick pullovers.

Jeans get worn several times, until they lose their fit or get stinky or a spot on them. Shirts usually twice, as long as it still smells nice. If anything gets worked out in it gets washed for sure.

Exactly.

I'm horrible at spilling on my clothes if my shirt makes it one day i'm happy. As for pants I really try for 4 days but sometimes it's only 1 before I get stuff on them. I'm blaming the cows, chickens and kid for getting my pants gross

This...sweaters until they are dirty. But I tend to get pretty dirty most days hanging out with DD. And she usually can't wear things more then once before it's covered in dirt, food, caulk, paint, markers, juice or something else.

This exactly, lol. I also find that using natural deodorants leads to less stains on the underarms of my shirts but more, um, smells. :-/

I wear jeans two or three times, bras twice, and everything else once, except the occasional top that manages to stay clean and gets worn twice. I will wear cardigans over tops three or four times, because I take them on and off all day so they don't get as dirty.

I usually wear shirts, dresses, and that sort of thing 2-3 times unless I get something on them or get sweaty. For jeans, I only wash them when they get dirty or get a smell, which ends up being about once/month or so.

Usually until they are smelly or dirty of course.. Rarely wash sweaters and sweatshirts ( I tend to wear a shirt under them) Jeans and pants until they lose their fit. Socks and underwear every use, except bras - I do the smell test on them. Shirts vary - sometimes I get one wear, sometimes 2-3. If they don't smell I don't wash.

Embarrassing but I wear jeans and sweaters until they are dirty, no matter how many times that is! For shirts/undershirts, I only wear once, even sleep shirts, only once.
