How much underwear?

[MyYoniFromHull]

It's a housekeeping rather than a S+B question

I'm sorting out the house a bit /declutter. I seem to have accumulated an awful lot of socks and knickers. Bras are easy to sort if I only keep the ones that fit.

So how many of each is reasonable for a healthy adult. Reducing to say 30 x knickers and 20 x socks would be a good start right but I lose socks all the time. I don't want to regret it next week when my feet are cold

(I tried Kondo but she's too strict for me)

I have 6 pairs of knickers and 6 pairs of socks. They're folded konmari style. That's it!

I have around 20 pairs of knickers. Ranging from 7 years old to about a year old. I feel this is about the right amount for me.

Socks I have too many, a guess would be 40 - 50 pairs, but are a combination of walking socks, normal socks, trainer socks , bed socks etc. However, I only bought about 10% of them, for some reason people give me socks for Christmas a lot.

I have about 15 knickers. I can usually do laundry once a fortnight if I need to.

Socks - maybe 4 pairs? About 15 pairs of tights. I usually run out of tights before knickers though.

I definitely need less. Can't imagine only having 4 x socks though!

I've still got some that pre-date the children and my oldest is 11 I'll aim for 20-30 and see if they fit happily in my drawer that's currently overflowing

Why don't you keep a dozen in your drawers and stick the rest in a plastic storage box and put it in your loft space or something. When you need a new pair just take жив from the box

I can't reach the loft hatch on my own shortarse
I have plenty of storage. Just more than plenty of crap to store iykwim

I very rarely wear socks. Although I do probably have more (walking socks etc). I could just think of 4 pairs of running socks and couldn’t imagine any others!

I have 16 pairs of knickers
8 pairs of socks
4 pairs of sport socks

why you think Kondo is too strict?

I’m the same as Nora I think.

She's not too strict really, she's just too strict for me and my hoarding ways to cope with
You know that person who buys more toilet rolls when they have opened their last pack of 16? That's me
