How often should you wash your clothes?

Oh, the perennial question.

We've had numerous debates over the years about this.

Particularly Jeans.

But now which magazine?

Which is a brilliant magazine.

I remember being introduced to it back in the 70s by my older brother when he was buying a new Hi-Fi.

Maybe it was the 80s.

Which magazine?

They do all the analysing and testing so that we don't have to.

And then they deliver it in a very accessible way and they tell you, this is the speaker you should buy, this is the car you should buy, the bicycle you should buy, or whatever.

And now they're telling us how often we should wash our clothes.

Which magazine?

Well respected.

So when they say something, you take heed.

So what they have done is a graphic, just because we can't read anymore and our attention spans have gone to zilch.

So they have a graphic and two washing lines.

And on the washing lines, you have underwear to jeans.

And there's a little tag on each of them telling you how many wears you should get out of each item of clothing before you wash it.

They've done all the research, but this is all you need to know.
