Just 7 wears on the average jeans... Folks must not heard of the jeand mom used to get us... Tough something or another, JC Penny jeans, that had the fashion appeal of Joe Biden in short shorts. But last they did. I still buy jeans that last... but hard to find great ones at a reasonable price now days, but I ain't as tough on them as I used to be. But even Wranglers have a life span of over 7 wears.
Washing wears clothes out... if your jeans ain't filthy, wear them another day. Something most Europeans already do because they know washing/drying eats clothes.
