I haven’t worn jeans in 10+ years. Am I missing something? Why wouldn’t you wash them?
How many times a year do you wash your jeans?

Hey, you asked the question.
Seriously, jeans can go a while between washes, as long as you change your underwear daily.
Which brings us to the next question:
How often do y’all change your underbritches?

I mean it depends on the uses. Esp sitting in a chair (also with my more cozy cotton pants) it can be like once a week, but also if it passes the smell test and there was no dirt-event it can also be idk, once a month?
so anwser probably would be like ~20-30 times a year, why what about you?

When they appear dirty or smell. A hoodie that I wore on a lazy day may get a couple wears before wash. My comfy sweat pants I treat like my jeans. Everything else gets one wear then washed.
I don’t see the need to wash something that doesn’t look or smell dirty.

Where did this ‘never wash your jeans!’ mentality come from?
It feels like jeans - regardless of designer or ‘raw denim’ status - were clothes until about seven years ago, then they became fragile and precious jewels.
News flash: if you’re worried about washing your jeans, you’re inventing problems because you have none of your own.

I remember the raw denim trend in like the early 2010s ans you allegedly weren’t supposed to wash those, but even then that’s a very specific type of jeans we’re talking.

The 60’s - when jeans were still very rough material and needed a LOT of breaking in.
Today’s jeans are wimpy by comparison.
But regardless of the material, I wash my pants when they get dirty, not every time I wear them.

I probably get a month, possibly two, out of them between washes. I work from home though, so they don’t really get that dirty.

Wash?

About 18 years on this Earth had I
afore i ever heard tell of this concept
Of narry washing a pair of fine denims.
Tis seems foolish, says I
Seems dyshygenic and vain
And one would never remove those vernacular stains
Which so oft finds home on my trouserlegs.
I was 'em once a week, same as with other trousers.

Nose blindness is real and jeans are very washable. Wash your jeans you stinky hippies.
