I sometimes wear my underwear for two days in a row (seriously). Anyone else?

I wear the same pair of jeans 10 or even 20 times between washings.

Now if the spots (coffee, tomato sauce, pencil marks, dirt, etc.) start adding up, it's time to wash.

Likewise, if they smell like ass, time to wash.

this is exactly how I am. I get as many uses out of any item of clothing I can. If it smells or if it has stains, it goes in the laundry. The running shorts I'm wearing as underwear for probably the 3rd day are still fair game for tomorrow. I don't sweat like a pig throughout the day like my fat roommates do and I don't workout in them, so why wash them?

If I'm not going to school, I'll wear the same pair several days in a row. For instance, I wore a pair three days in a row, through multiple workouts.

you know, we grownups who wear suits actually only clean them every couple of months or so

There have been times where I've worn the same underwear for 4+ days in a row, probably without showering either. It starts to smell pretty bad and a yellow pee stain starts to build up from all the leftovers, and it gets kind of damp as well. I think people get obsessed with hygiene. My policy is if I wouldn't notice it if I didn't know about it in the first place, it doesn't really matter.

Well it all depends...are the underwear in question update?

If you wear really nice jeans(150-300$) then you should not wash them and definitely not dry them very much at all. I wear my jeans probably 30-60 days in a row and they fit better and better every single day. I only wash them when they are stained or smell bad. All other clothes you should wash after every single wear. Washing Denim too much just makes them fit and look like shit.

Hell, I've never even worn your underwear once

Whoa you guys are crazy. Maybe try cleaning up after yourself after you go to the bathroom, and your underwear won't smell so bad. I rarely wash underwear before I've worn it 3-4 times and it never smells bad.

On a similar note, I recently stopped whering deoderant. I figure that I dont really sweat other than when I run, and I shower when i get back from running. I do change my underwear at least once every 36 hours, though.

If you switch to using plastic or leather underwear you do not need to wash every time. Just use your Kleenex to wipe them and they are good as new.

Undies are reversible. Flip them in and out to get a second use. Flip from to back to get four total days of use.

I laughed audibly for about 10 seconds after reading this.

I only got three days doing that. Tried to pee the third day and it didn't go well!!

Shouldn't be a problem ,as you are a letsrunner no girl will ever see them

I wear the same underwear about 3 days in a row. But, I hate doing laundry.

Actually, I'm engaged and am getting married this summer. Like someone else mentioned, my undies don't usually get gross. Now, if I make a mess in them, they go in the wash. However, unlike most here, I know how to properly wipe and shower, so my undies don't get nasty.
