How many time do you wear jeans before washing them?

I was reading this article on LinkedIn, which got me to a conversation with a co-worker, which, in turn, got me to start this thread. The CEO of Levi's says we can make a significant difference in water & energy consumption by wearing jeans 10 times before we wash them instead of the usual 2 times, which is what I do. 

 

How many times do you wear them befoer washing them? Just wondering what my go-to general consensus that is teh Huddle says....

 

 

 

 

 

It’s no surprise that the manufacture of jeans is a water intensive process, but the 2007 Lifecycle Assessment we conducted (and updated this year) detailed just how big a part of the water and climate problem we are. The latest study showed that on average a single pair of 501 jeans consumes nearly 3,800 liters of water and produces 33 kg of carbon emissions throughout its lifetime.

That data galvanized us and pushed us to rethink how we make our jeans – and how we could become part of the solution. It led to the creation of the Levi’s® Water<Less™ process and implementation of the apparel industry’s first standard for 100% water recycling and reuse. Our push to curb water use across our operations has -- so far -- saved more than one billion liters of water globally since 2011. It’s also given us the credibility to challenge our customers to embrace more sustainable practices.

I must be the weird one here.  I wash them even after one wear.

 

 

Same here but I also shower twice a day which apparently most people don't do. Now if i wear jeans to a movie or dinner and only have them on for a couple hours then I will hang them back up but all day...they are going in the wash.

    • The difference is that Sanders has the work ethic and does work. Johnny didn't. Bad comp.
    • I explained that I was old school and I realize that others have a different opinion.  Being Deion's son is a bit different.   It suggests that his focus is on the money and not football--It is not just the diamonds--it is the dollar sign on the shirt.  Telling a reporter from the Raiders "I ain't going sixth."  Asking another reporter, "Do you know who my dad is?"  When asked what sets him apart from the others, he said that he is mentally more prepared.  Meanwhile, Dad as recently as March Deion, implied he would advise Shedeur to avoid certain franchises--later to retract that position during an interview with Skip Bayless.  You can't take the fact that he is probably a late first, early second round talent and ignore the fact that his comments, jewelry, $ on his shirts and uniform towels might suggest a feeling of entitlement, a person focused on the return more than the opportunity. As I said very clearly--this is my opinion about one person who was raised as a great player's son and how it might rub some the wrong way.  It comes off as entitled.  Fine if he lives up to it, but to me, it suggests that his mind might not be in the right place.  Perhaps he should be focused on humility, his work ethic, and how he is going to earn it--instead, this comes off as someone who thinks this is his reward.  I am sure that others feel the same way, but if I am the GM, I do not want the circus.  Remember Johnny?  I commented at the time that his money gesture would backfire.  It tells me that his mind was not in the right place.  Same thing.
