I don't get how some people have big hangups about say wearing a pair of socks TWO DAYS in a row. I can understand not wearing things when they get dirty and maybe I'm just a slob but I would wear the same socks for at least a few days. And stuff like tshirts, I wear them loads before I wash them and yeah sometimes two days in a row.

Some people seem to be really obsessed with cleanliness these days, and although I shower each day I think clothes can last a bit longer :P

What about you, do you have to wear something once and wash it or would you turn your socks inside out and prolong their wearing time. (Not that I do that, but I do quite admire how Lister from the Red Dwarf chose to live. xD)

Some things are more important than clean socks!

Maybe im a slob too cause I do the same thing. I find it retarded that you wear something once and wash it. Unless it is dirty, I dont do that. Same with t-shirts. If they arent dirty or anything, I wear it a few times more. Then I wash it. :)

I usually wear a T-Shirt for one day, before washing. But I am a pretty messy person, so chances are by the end of the day it might need it.

Heck yah sometimes when Im being smart about laundry . I'll wear the same pants all week. No one knows that I do it because Im college and only see each class twice a week.

I wouldn't turn my underwear inside out (Volia! Good as new!) but I wouldn't change it every day. It takes time to get comfortable in a pair of clean underwear or socks.

I found that imensely humourous alst year when one roomate did a washing about every 3 days, and the other did only 3 the whole year. I base laundry loads on tshirts, I wear all my thsirts once (twice in a row if its the weeend and dont lan on doing anything) then i start over again, I do that 2 or 3 times before a wash, and I hardly wear socks to worry about that xD.

I usually wear a t-shirt and a sweatshirt. I never wear a t-shirt twice without washing it. I usually don't wear the same sweatshirt or jeans twice, but I will if I'm on vacation or something and don't want to pack too much. I never wear the same socks twice without washing them, and I think the thought of wearing the same pair of underwear two days in a row is absolutely disgusting.

I wear the same socks for a few days straight.

As for shirts/pants I'll wear them a few times before washing (as long as I don't spill something or get dirt on them etc.)

I'll wear any given pair of jeans 3-7 times in a row before washing it. However, I usually cycle T-shirts daily unless it's the weekend and I'm feeling lazy. Socks can last anywere from one to 5 uses.

Xander

Oh, trousers, if I have a black pair, don't expect me to wash them more than twice a year. xD

I'm probably the biggest slob any of you would ever meet. My room is a catastrophe and you can't even walk through it because of the clothes thrown everywhere. So I have no problem wearing clothes more than once. I've picked them up off the floor before and put them on without knowing how long they've been there :jess:

I try to don a new pair of socks everytime I go out. It's not me doing the washing so I can take advantage of that

pants and shirts are ok to use more than once by me.

socks aren't so good because my shoes (i have this pair i love sooo much and need to throw away but they are sooo cool!) are starting to get this smell because i accidentally got them wet.

So no to reused socks.

I could reuse a pair of boxers (seeing as how i only wear them to werk for like 8 hrs (while i sit in an A/C office and answer the phones) and then they come off) >.<

Do you HAVE Body Odour???

I wear t-shirts one day before washing, sometimes 2, sometimes 3. Wearing the same socks day after day :| WHAT?? Socks get so dirty so FAST, i mean, they're all nice in the morning and black and skanky in the evening... What the heck? Lol, can't be good for your feet either.

I wear the same trousers for like a week though, they dont get dirty or smelly easily, so yeah. I only have 2 pairs of trousers anyway.

Well, in all honesty, I will only wear really clean clothes if I'm going out somewhere, but if I'm at home for a few days then I just stay in the same clothes for a couple of days, there's nothing wrong with that, obviously I sleep in my pyjamas, so I'm not always in the same clothes, and I also have a shower as well, so that keeps me clean. As for socks, well, I'll let the sig do the talking!

I almost never wear clean socks, or clean anything. I don't wash anything until it is soiled. Then again if I wasn't paying $5 for one load of laundry............

09-10-2006, 09:20 PM
The only things I'll wear more than once are pants, sweaters, and some shirts - like the shirts that I sleep in. Anything else is just nasty. I can totally smell, so it's not fun being in old clothes. Especially socks. Feet are gross.

I change my socks, underwear and t-shirts everyday while I can wear the same pair of jeans for a week or so without there being a problem. Also, shirts or sweaters, where I wear a t-shirt underneath, can be worn more than once as well.

This Thread is going to give me nightmares! :crying:

It's the scariest Thread ever created :crying:

For the record, i only wear fresh clothes every single day. Fresh socks, fresh pants, fresh jeans... fresh everything. Wouldn't be able to be happy otherwise.

Someone should start a Thread... 'How many a showers a week do you take?'

I might do it!

Clean socks everyday. If Im at school, and I go somewhere after school and change my clothes, I don't change my socks. They're socks - WHO see's them?

It depends. If I get clothes dirty then I put them in the wash, If I dont, I usually throw it on the floor, leave it for a week, tidy my room and put them in the wash. I wear Jeans more than once, I mean god. I only have two pairs!

Cz
09-10-2006, 09:51 PM
Here's how it goes:

Socks: Wear once and then wash. I like to walk around the house in my socks, so they get all kinds of crap on them.
Underpants: Wear once and wash. I'd rather wear none at all than wear the same pair twice, so if I'm out of clean pants, I go commando. :jokey:

Shirts: I can wear the same shirt for two days in a row, unless it's really sweaty and horrible. I tend not to, though, since I have a lot of shirts and I don't run out very often.

Jumpers/Sweaters: As long as it takes to get a stain on them. Usually between 5-10 minutes. :D

Jeans/Trousers: Two days.

I change socks and underwear daily, but anything else I'll wear as long as it looks and smells clean.

I don't wear socks. :tongue:

Ditto. I hate socks!

But yeah, it's not cool to wear dirty socks again. That's super gross. Pants and maybe shirts, if you keep them clean, but socks are on your feet and trapped inside a shoe for hours. Why would you wear that again without washing it? Eww.

i often wear gray socks more than once. if i've been wearing some clothes for approximately a day's worth, it will be thrown into the laundry basket. and i have some "set pjs" which i change every 2-3 days...

ValkyrieWing
09-11-2006, 07:53 AM
Ya see....if I didn't change my socks everyday, people would notice...because all of my socks are of the obnoxiously brightly colored toe variety. :P Heh...

So, it's usually clean clothes everyday for me.

I most certainly prefer clean socks but I'm running out of decent socks now and there are some days that I just don't have any clean ones available to me. I need some new socks.

Shaun
09-11-2006, 01:51 PM
Sometimes I fall asleep in my clothes and my mum goes ape, so yeah, she has some views of cleanliness. I wear jeans for two days, t-shirts for one day (two if I'm not going out of the house at all the next day), socks for two days usually, and my boxers for ONE day, like all guys should.

Mirage
09-11-2006, 03:13 PM
I try changing underwear and socks every day, but it doesn't bother me if i wear the same shirt for a few days. If it smells or looks dirty, that's when I change them.

NorthernChaosGod

I have no problem wearing my socks two days in a row as long as I didn't sweat in them badly the first day. Same thing with my shirts.

09-12-2006, 01:36 AM
I don't have any problem wearing shirts or pants more then once before washing them, but I just can't wear socks more then once before washing them. I just can't! It just feels so ... weird ... I'd rather have them nice and clean :D

I agree with Xander. Only stuff which gets changed fo' sho' is underwear, but as a guy I have access to a special techinque which allows me to wear the same underwear four days in a row and legitimately claim it to be clean.

Normal

Inside-out backwards

Anything else, I wear it either until it LOOKS unclean, or until I get bored of wearing it. Unless, obviously, I do stuff in it which makes it all ew, like go running (Lol).

Yay, I love you xD Oh and being in a shoe all day does not necessarily make socks really dirty...maybe some people's feet just sweat too much =P

I will be wearing them tomorrow for shya.</div><div style= ":bou::bou::bou::bou::bou::bou::bou::bou::bou::bou: relative; left: 3px; top: -7.2em; font-size:11pt;">Unlike most of my fellow band members, I like to have clean socks every friday night we perform.

My feet are gross. They often sweat a lot. My socks are often damp after a 10 hour day at work. If I were to try wearing them the next day without washing them, they would be all crusty (not to mention smelly). I would be totally miserable.

I sometimes wear jeans more than once without washing them. Only if they didn't get visibly dirty though. I don't feel gross doing that. I would feel gross wearing a t-shirt, underwear, or socks twice though.
