How long do you wear the same pair of trousers...

...before washing them?

I have a favourite pair of jeans which I sometimes wear for up to 6 days ^_^ They don't smell, and I'd rather not wash them every few days, as this affects the colour and feel.

    Depends if I'm not going out, sometimes 3 days. That's if I don't get anything down them, that case I change them when I can.

    Weekdays it's either black/brown/scruffy jeans unless i'm out jogging in which case i'm wearing trakkie bottoms. Weekends I have a more formal pair of jeans for whenever i'm out and about anywhere.

    6 days?
    My jeans could go unwashed for 6 weeks if they don't get dirty.

    Hmmm...I sometimes like the idea of creating a ripple of shock, yet dread to think of the reactions if I start going into details about my habits sometimes in this regards...

    How exactly do you go about creating a "ripple of shock"? :confused:

    Jeans aren't like ordinary trousers, for some reason they get to smell disgusting only after a couple of days, whereas trousers are ok for longer!!

    Unfortunately that's probably not true. If they wear out too quickly when being washed regularly then either replace them or buy better trousers.

    To answer your question: usually 2 days.

    It must be to do with the thickness of the material, or something!

    I thought I was rank and disgusting for wearing jeans for 3 days on the go! I feel clean now!

    I wear them once, then wash them. I've never heard of anyone do anything else. Weeks? Really?

    It was what people did with their trousers back in the 1960s and 1970s! ;)

    Rubbish, denim is just a cloth like twill, tweed or corduroy.

    Dearie me, you read some weird stuff on this board.

    A week or a bit longer.

    Hard to say because I rarely wear jeans on consecutive days... so probably about 4 days wear before I wash them.
