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 :o

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?

  • 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.

    Yes!! I'm the same with hoodies! They are essentially a jacket!!

    Every self-respecting Canadian does, indeed, have a cottage.

  • I suppose that makes me a complete slob for doing 6-7 lately. :p
    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. :D

    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 came, I saw, I concurred.....

    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.
    I can't go the library anymore, everyone STINKS!!

    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?

    Are you kiddin me? My ONE pair of jeans are clean for about a day and that's it. By the way - watching the bonus track of MMJ with Eddie. Always good stuff. Again - when is watching PJ on a DVD surround sound a bad thing????


    EDIT: This sentence may not make any sense, but I am fffffucked up.
  • pearljamjenpearljamjen Posts: 13,578
    I wash them after 2 wears. Otherwise they get stretched out and lose their shape.

    :D I think it is socially acceptable for guys to be a little less...well...it isn't fair anyway. :D

    But I don't think guys have to worry about jeans stretching or losing shape. :D
