whats your 'wear' limit on jeans??

CHANGEinWAVES

Ok so I'll be the first to admit it...I wear jeans for a few days before washing.
Day 1 just outta the wash...kinda stiff
Day 2 getting warn in and nice
Day 3 oh sooo comfy
Day 4 I should of washed em but too lazy:D and they are stretched out!

No more then 4 days usually for me, but there have been times of desperation where I've gone much longer

Oh the jeans with 'stretch' in them...I hate em! Can't get anymore then 2 days before the knee caps are all stretched outta shape!:mad:

So what's your limit?

Haha...I'm the same. I'm on day 2 right now actually

I usually don't go as far as day 4 though, except at the cottage lol

i try to get 2 to 3 wears before putting them in the basket, but my wife seems to have a hard on for washing them after every wear. i tell her she doesn't have to do that, it's not like i'm outside rolling around in the mud.

same thing with hoodies. i always wear a t-shirt under a hoodie, so i don't see the point in washing them after wearing it once. the only time i would want my jeans or hoodies washed after only wearing them once is if i spilled something on them.

Every self-respecting Canadian does, indeed, have a cottage.
The hockey thing is bullshit, the Tim Horton's thing is bullshit. Cottage is true!

I suppose that makes me a complete slob for doing 6-7 lately.
Jeans are so hard to buy and I'm only down to a couple pairs I really like, one of which is getting holes :(

when i remember to wash them but def not before 3 days.
or if theyve been lying around or i find them shoved under the bed or something then its ok to wear them if youre going to a gig. just give them a shake. why run the risk of spilling booze on a clean pair of jeans.

I'm afraid my smart jeans are not at their best after one wear, they'll do 2 at a push. Denim is much softer these days than it used to be, once upon a time, a pair of jeans would be almost unwearable for a week after washing. Not so now me and Chris Cornell, we love 'em :cool:

I have done the 6-7 days before... Again due to laziness, actually that's why I started this thread! I've been moving and I just realized I can't remember when I last washed the jeans I'm wearing:eek:!!
I'd say I'm at the 7 or so day mark!! They are incredibly outta shape:(

My work jeans do me for the 5 days. My going out jeans get about 2 to 3 wears depending on the season. Get a bit hot and sweaty here in summer.

fair enough, I only have one style of jeans, let's call 'em cool rather than smart.

it depends...the most for me is 3 wears (but not 3 days straight of wearing it)...what i really hate is when it rains and my newly washed pair of jeans gets soiled...

Fuck that man. 6-7 is light wear for me. What the hell am I doing that gets them dirty anyway? I have 2 pairs of jeans and I rotate them daily for the most part. I wash them when I run out of socks or underwear, so each pair gets at least 6-7 days of wear before they're washed.

Weren't you people supposed to be grunge fans?
