I've been running my second poll on the blog over the past 3 months, trying to find out how often people wash their jeans. The results were vary varied, and it seems people do what they believe is the right way, or what grosses them out. Below are the results of the 105 people who completed the poll. I asked a very simple question:How often do you wash your jeans?
After each time I wear them - 8 people (7%)
Once a week - 26 people (24%)
Once a month - 18 people (17%)
Every 3 months - 13 people (12%)
Every 6 months - 18 people (17%)
Once a year or longer - 15 people (14%)
Never - 7 people (6%)
The UN recommend wearing at least 3 times between washes. Personally I rarely wash jeans, I just rotate between different pairs. I think it's wasteful to the environment and unnecessary.
