re: How many times should you wear dress shirts, pants before you wash them?

I wash them when ever they get dirty regardless if they need it or not

Pants 2-3 days if I'm not doing anything in them. Washing pants is generally awful for them so I try not to. I'll take all my stuff to the dry cleaners but I hate making that trip.

For shirts, I don't wear undershirts so one time at most and then they're getting washed on gentle cycle or going to the dry cleaners depending on how nice they are.

I do sometimes but I have to wear dress shirts every day of the week and it'd get to be too expensive

So do I. Taking a shirt to the dry cleaners only cost about a dollar so if you are playing $3.50 to do a load of laundry you're going to spend like an extra dollar a week. Not only is it not really more expensive, you're shirts will last much longer so it's actually probably cheaper in the long run.

Pants usually 2-3 days assuming no noticeable marks, I don't like to wash them every time I wear them as it wears them down. I wash dry fit polos daily

After half a day of wear they go to the cleaners.

Shirt once, pants 2 maybe 3 times.
