    Having a discussion with someone at the moment about how often they wear the same shirt.

    I wear a T-shirt or shirt for one day before washing it. Wouldn't wear it again without washing it. They disagree.

    Probably twice, unless it smelt or had a stain on. Only for normal things like going to the shops etc., not if I was properly going out.

    I wear the same shirt until it falls off me from threadbareness.

    Varies but one or two days at the most.

    I think at this stage I have enough t-shirts to wear a different one every day of the year.

    Only wear it once generally. I often wear the t-shirt I've been wearing to bed anyway so no way I'd wear it again.

    Once for anything I'd wear out the house. 3 days and over for anything I'm just wearing in the house assuming it passes the smell test.

    2 days is standard, pure waste changing everyday. Sometimes three days, particularly say Thursday, Friday at work and then Saturday just doing bits around. Can't imagine changing a t-shirt or shirt every day.

    I would often get a good few wears out of something I only wore for a while, say a shirt I wore on a night out would go back in the wardrobe once nothing was spilled on it for the next night and possibly do the same again after its next wear if is just worn for a few hours.

    I always get mad stressed out reading some replies in threads like these.
    1 time. And if it comes off at any point throughout the day, it doesn't go back on.
    So, if I take a shower in the middle of the day, or if I get undressed for whatever reason, then when it's time to put clothes on again, they got to be fresh

    Depends. For work I'll wear it twice, usually day 1, and day 3, and another day 2 and day 4

    I'd be the very same. I'd never wear the same T-shirt two days in a row, I wouldn't feel comfortable at all.

    Plus putting on freshly washed and dried clothes that have been sat on a hot radiator or heater feels amazing after a shower :D

    You honestly can't beat the feeling of being clean. Fresh out of the shower, in fresh clothes. One of the nicest feelings ever. Have no idea why it's not more of the done thing!

    Boxers on the rad every morning for when I get out of the shower. Toasty!

    I don't wear jocks, I wear thongs or other women's underwear. But I'd change them at least twice in 24 hours.

    7am when I wake up, fresh ones on. Fresh ones on again after a shower that evening. Fresh ones on again the next morning.

    I do it with my bra and top :pac: the undies aren't substantial enough to have an impact when heated :pac:

    Depends on whether it needs to be washed ffs.

    Most of you seem to be very sweaty bastards...

    Same rule. If they come off, new pair. So they're changed at least twice in 24 hours. Usually get up, shower, get dressed, clean underwear, clean clothes.
    Come home, get into slobbing about the house clothes, lose the bra, clean underwear. Shower before bed, jammies, clean underwear.

    It must be nice, always having a full seat to yourself on public transport.
