I succeeded. Monday through Friday, baby! Levi’s 501s, light blue. 34" x 34". I want to thank my wife and coworkers for giving me the strength and fortitude to accomplish this goal. Stay dull, my friends!

    Ok, I’m wearing my jeans also until they’re visible dirty or I’ve had a day, where I’ve sweat into them quite much and they start to get smelly.

    But you’re wearing a pair for months - without washing? Oo
    Or was the washing in between an obvious thing, not worth to be mentioned?

      I remember reading back in like 2015ish that the CEO of Levi’s never washes his jeans because the way the fabric is woven prevents stuff from building up? I’m not sure of the exact details, but I’ve claimed and spread this for about 10 years now so I should probably go verify it at some point lol

      I wear black jeans so it’s hard to notice a visible mess unless it’s really caked on, and I hardly ever sweat in them. I haven’t washed my jeans in a very long time. I don’t wear them for work anymore though, which contributes to that

      I very rarely “have a day”, I sit in an office chair all day and the climate around here never gets too hot or anything. I don’t know off the top of my head what an average might be, but for certain I’ve easily gone 6 weeks without washing them.

        I see.

        I’m usually in my office at well - although that one is at home by now and sadly not climatised, but at least I don’t need to wear pants ;⁠-⁠)

        But sometimes I need to go on site to a customer and then it can get dirty and hot…

        Else, I’m with you, I don’t see the reason to wash stuff, that’s not dirty in my opinion, as well

      Eh, depending on how many other pairs of pants they own, that could mean just wearing them a few times. I used to have enough clothing that I’d just wash it twice a year unless something gets extra dirty. Most of it is too baggy on me now, sadly, so I have to do the wash more often.
