if i didnt do anything to get them dirty like just wore em to school i will wear again without washing.
|
|
I'll go about a week without washing mine, but never washing them? Fuck that. When they hold their shape on their own because of all the grime, it's fo time.

I wear my jeans until they are visibly dirty or have an odor.
I get multiple days out of the same pair of jeans. Not that I wear them consecutively, but rotate a few pairs. |

I do that with most of my pants. Unless I spilled food on them or something, one day of sitting on the train, sitting at work, or sitting in class doesn't really get them dirty. |

No kidding, if I washed my jeans everday after 1 days usage, they would be worn down to fragile pieces by the wash/dry cycle. |

What is with the large section of new jeans that already look dirty? I want blue jeans not yellowed blue jeans.

I wear mine until I notice a smell or they are visibly dirty. Usually just one pair at a time, but I only wear jeans in the evening, so I can go several weeks unless I am working on an outdoor project. |

Unless they get visibly dirty or you go commando, washing after every use isn't necessary.
|
|
I cannot take a shower, be all clean and fresh, and then put on a pair of jeans I wore the day before. Even if they LOOK clean, they don't feel clean.

I usually rock em 2-3 days then into the hamper they go. Even longer with work pants. |

TJ do you mean the "trucker" fad (about 5 years ago) or are you referring to kids who buy high-dollar raw selvege jeans and wear them for months to get better whiskering?
Personally I don't chase fashion trends ... you can never catch up. If you stick with the classics (for your age) you can never go wrong. Check out thunderw21's fedora thread for a good example. |

It's after labor day so this will have to wait. |

Remember in 90's/80's when those blue jeans with shredded holes in the were popular??
MY sisters BF had a ranch in Brazoria county,TX and some company paid him to shoot these blue jeans with his shotgun...Pretty cool gig, and proves dumbasses will pay extra for damaged merchandise one would normally send back to the store. |

The Green Movement. Suzy Rotten Crotch wants her cunt to smell the same as the bean soup squirting out of her ass.

Sometimes I do wear them consecutively. I sit at a desk all day for work. Unless I fart too much or the kids puke on them they don't get dirty. |

1950 called: Get Off My Lawn.
1960 called, daddy-o 1970 called, but they were to stoned to do more than giggle. 1980 called, something about a facist machine. 1990 called uh.. um.... huh? 2000 called and said their jeans would save the world if The Man would let them make them out of hemp. 2010 tweeted omg rofl gtfo. |

I can only get a few days wearing my little sister's tight fitting jeans in before she figures out I've been raiding her wardrobe again and washes them.

I think this is what OP is talking about. They buy raw/selvege jeans that were never rinsed at the factory. Waiting to wash your jeans will give more defined whiskering that reflects the actual wearer. |

Leave those kids alone. They are just expressing their individuality by conforming.

I also see this trend with soldiers. Lots of ketchup and grease stains on their ACUs. I personally don't have a problem with this.

The problem with "I wash them when they start to smell" is that everyone else smells you three days before you smell you
