How many pairs of jeans do you own? How many jeans that you own actually get worn on a regular or semi-regular basis?

I own 12 pairs of jeans, but only about 5 of them get regular or even semi-regular wear.

About 20 pairs

about 4-5 pairs are diesels from 5 years ago that I never wear anymore

2 washed prps
1 washed kohzo and 1 washed 45rpm

the rest are dry jeans made up of 5ep, rb, nudie, acne, somet, diors, and kmw

I only wear about 2-3 pairs on a regular basis

the rest are on and off ..sparingly throughout the year I would say

future denim purchases: iron heart 634 and south willard 10oz jeans ..I dont know when Ill be buying these though..

the future purchases is a good thing too

i plan on getting a pair of STF's and some Strangler bootcuts. I have decided 40$ is the most I should spend on jeans at this point in my life.

I find it hard to justify spending another 500 dollars on jeans as I have too many pairs. But im still gonna end up doing it ...

A couple dozen. But the amount spans years. I dont think I throw anything away, although second and third looks warrant a purging.

None. I've tried to wear jeans, but just can't stand them.

Current rotation:

SC Okinawas
5EP LDB rigid
Iron Heart 634
APC NS
45 rpm Sorahiko Slims o/w
R&B rb6
KMW 1950

I probably have at least a dozen others of various brands (Diesel, 7FAM, Gap) that I no longer wear. Will probably donate or sell. From all the raws denim I currently own, I'm set for quite a while. Still kicking around 5EP straight down zips. Love 5EP jeans.

I have 9 pairs.

Last year was all about Nudie, this year i've gone all repro.

Current rotation -
SC '47's, most week days
LVC '33 & Edwin ed-47, weekends

I've become fascinated by Kato recently (www.katobrand.com), the design and methods of production, etc. I've got to somewhere find about £200 to get a pair though which i'm finding hard to justify.

2, 1 (Acne) gets regular rotation. Not much of a denim fan.

Too many, now:

Sugarcane Okinawa (1.5 years old, fall, winter, spring)
Rogan Original (1.5 years old, rarely wear, beater jean for heavy drinking at night)
Samurai S5000VX (1 year old, fall, winter)
APC Rescue (2 years old, spring, summer)
PDC RPM (2 years old, rarely worn, summer)
Rogan lightweight dark original cut (brand new, summer)
Full Count 1108 (3 months old, fall, winter, spring)
Kohzo persimmon-dyed (1.5 years old, rarely worn)

No plans to buy any more any time soon. The next pair I buy will probably be something cut like the 5000VX but in a 13.5 oz dark denim.... If I can find it.

Sitting in the closet, never worn:
