How many pairs of underwear do you own?

[jwslam]

Was going through my personal inventory yesterday and I'm undecided if I have too many or too few (~7).
Personally I feel like underwear is currently my bottleneck for when I need to do laundry.

Maybe I need to be specific and make the poll about "how many pairs of underwear do you regularly rotate through"... I don't need to know about your kinky stuff that's not worn daily, or if you do wear that daily.

I guess this can also be a discussion about what bottlenecks your laundry?

[gqmw]

~7 seems to be pretty light...

I probably have around 20-25. I definitely wouldn't want to do laundry weekly just for underwear.

[Twin_Cam_Turbo]

Roughly ten.

[lilmira]

~1 1/2 dozen. How old is the your oldest pair lol

The capacity of my laundry basket is usually the trigger, not so much the supply of clean clothes.

[Tik-Tok]

About 2 dozen

[bjstare]

I probably have 15. Haven't bought them in a few years, it's amazing how long they last.

I have a stay at home wife, there are no bottlenecks in my laundry.

[Mitsu3000gt]

I'm guessing ~30. I found a sale on the "My Package" underwear and bought a lot. For socks and underwear, they are cheap enough that I replace them at the first sign of wear. Costco for socks, Last Hunt for underwear.

[nismodrifter]

Probably 15-20

[schocker]

I like to buy too much of everything so probably around 30 pairs of saxx from over the years. I am a damp dry beep guy though so my clothes last a long time and just keep piling up.

[lasimmon]

I have 12 and it is my limiting reagent.

[max_boost]

Dude you are Asian Millennial Speedog asking this kind of q

[holden]

I'm at 6-10, with a couple new ones still in packaging in the closet. This doesn't included tights that I wear for gym and sports. I'm of the Marie Kondo school of thought, toss it if it doesn't "spark joy".

[A790]

25 pairs of undies and about 80 pairs of socks. All are funky, comfy, awesome pairs that "spark joy". lol

Easy there Trudeau.

[pheoxs]

~15 probably. Anytime I see a store with Saxx on clearance I usually grab whatever variety of colors they have and then retire my oldest sets.

[A790]

Easy there Trudeau.

Don't be jealous of my sock game. I switched to socks after my watch collection became obscene (and expensive). Better on the wallet.

[03ozwhip]

I have about 30. Trying new stuff that feels better. I have some that are close to 20 years old though lol

[ExtraSlow]

I for sure have a few pairs that are past 20 years. potentially 30. But I also have a pretty big rotation. About 20 pairs.

[lilmira]

20-30 year old? That's millennial panties lol

I have 14 pairs of the exact same sock, lol. I like them like my women, extra thicc bottom.

lol fair enough. I like to have something funky/interesting to collect. Socks are functional. All the rocks/gemstones/etc. I have are not. You know how it goes.

[The_Rural_Juror]

Saxx and MyPakage are the worst. You can't turn them inside out for a second wear.

I own two pairs and I wash one of them in the kitchen sink every other night.

[SJW]

I have 17 pairs and 2 of those are tighty whiteys from when i had a vasectomy. Those are my reserve when there's no boxer briefs left.

[pheoxs]

So with Saxx/Pakage/etc we are getting more premium options for boxers and they're definitely more comfy than cheapo walmart ones. Is there an equivalent for socks? Like are some more comfy / worth it versus just buying a bulk pack?

In sink you wash and prepare your food in?

11-15 for me, and I hand wash daily while showering. This was a habit I acquired from travelling.

Where do you get good socks? I've always found they either are cheap Spencers Gifts style or just standard ones.

[Mitsu3000gt]

Good socks (made in at least 3 separate pieces stitched together for structure) are really expensive from what I've found, and since they are so easily ripped/stained, etc. because they're basically napkins for your feet, I just stick to the thick bottom Puma ones from Costco for dailies. Underwear I don't mind buying the good stuff because it lasts forever if taken care of well (wash delicate + hang to dry), and it doesn't really see much 'wear and tear'.

I swear by Nike Dri-FIT socks, i have yet to experience another as comfy.

We have very different definitions of "good" socks.

[ExtraSlow]

MacGregor is good socks.

[sneek]

Easily 50+. I think I have 15 pairs of MyPackage and 10+ SAXX in box still. I always buy them when they go on sale because the discount is pretty good a few times a year. I think I average $7-$10 for SAXX and MyPackage before the name change. Usually they are uglier colourways but I don't really care.

No I cook my food on the stove usually. Sink is a bit too small. Don't worry my privates are super clean.

[Buster]

You guys wash underwear? Savages.

Wear and toss, bishes. Saxx.

[The_Rural_Juror]

You sound like someone who takes joy with peeing in the sink. Not that there is anything wrong with that.

[schurchill39]

I try and run about 16 pairs which is enough for a 2 week field stint plus 2 extra for travelling or when you inevitably shit yourself. I hate doing laundry if I am on the road and now the laundry cycle equates to when ever the hamper is full. I am a big fan of SAXX with honorable mention going to RDS and Ripzone which are the best cheaper ones I have found. I found My Package to be complete garbage and they fit super awkward I own one pair and they are emergency reserve only.

[davidI]

Legit just did an inventory:

8 Saxx Boxer Briefs
1 BN3TH Boxer Briefs
2 SuperDry Briefs
4 Athletic/Compression (Mix of Saxx, BN3TH, Adidas)
3 Old/Cheap Back-Ups.

When/where do you see them on discount? SAXX always seem to be $30+ when I buy them.
