My husband wears the same jumper and jeans for 3 days in row ..

[KiwiDollar]

He sees nothing wrong with it at all and doesn’t understand my reasoning. I completely disagree. Obviously if his clothes are still clean then they can be worn again but I don’t think you can wear them again on several consecutive days. I’m embarrassed if we see people we know for two days in a row and he’s in the same outfit. I think it gives weird vibes like he can only afford one outfit. Just seems a bit studenty, and dirty. Am I being unreasonable??

If I’m at home I wear the same jeans and jumper several days on the trot (but change my underwear everyday). If I’m at work or going out, I’d not wear the same clothes two days running.

But I don’t really see anything wrong with what your husband is doing (unless the clothes smell).

Socks!!??

People won't notice his clothes as much as you think OP.

They'll notice if he's a bit pongy though, which id assume you would tell him if he was

@MasterBeth
Yep.

If its wool, it has antibacterial and antimicrobial properties to it and consequently needs minimal washing, its an amazing material. Lasts a long time, but if you bury it, its biodegradable.

YABU. The vast majority of people will not notice. I have been sat next to my DH all eve, he's just gone into another room and I can honestly say I couldn't tell you what colour top he is wearing! I also never notice if someone wears glasses ... they wear glasses - really? Honestly you are spending too much time worrying about this. I mean if they were smelly and filthy then fine he should change but if it's for the sake of appearances for your friends and neighbours (which is very weird) then YABVU.

Okay if he is wearing underwear. My DH has his uniform washed once midweek, once on the weekend, he works 6 days.
He changes the minute he is in, while showering daily.
Is he washing himself daily?

When was the last century anyone got even mildly unwell from bacteria on their clothes? I’ll wait.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with wearing clothes multiple times. It’s better for the clothes and better for the environment.

Wool socks don’t smell! And they are so cosy and comfortable.

If you think it’s ok to wear clothes more than once, why does it matter if they’re worn on consecutive days? I’m genuinely baffled.

Nah, if he doesn't bother to change his shirt, I bet he doesn't shower daily.

Showered, clean pants, socks and teeshirt? No problem.

If he smells, or is rewearing stuff closer to his skin, maybe encourage a review of hygiene.

That’s gross 🤢

That’s rank.

Who has said anything about not changing his shirt? OP said jumper.

I hang clean but worn clothes away from clean clothes in wardrobes as worn clothes attract moths (they like the scent of our bodies etc..)

All depends on the person. I have to change everything every day, I’m a generally sweaty person, unfortunately 😁. My DH could get a week out of a pair of socks without so much as a whiff of a feet smell, he is annoyingly wholesome!

Yes, you are being ridiculous

Does he smell bad then? Are you embarrassed by him?
There is absolutely nothing wrong with wearing the same jeans and jumper days in a row.
good on him for environmental purposes.

Christ, you'd hate me, I wear the same jeans for a week or two at a time, basically until I get some unidentified mark on them.

DH has about 5 x exactly the same pair of trousers, 2 of at least 3 or 4 favourite
shirts
And about 3 similar jumpers in similar colour

Nobody has ever commented

It isn't gross at all - wtf is wrong with you?

I'm not in the UK and we are continually being advised via TV to wash our clothes less.

I would smell really bad if I did this.

YABU. Both can be worn til visibly stained unless sweat's an issue. You must be doing endless laundry!

Underwear is what needs changing daily. Not jeans or a jumper. Get. A. Grip. OP,
