I would wash them in cold water with Dark Woolite whenever they smell or after 15-20 wears. Washing lengthens the life of jeans because it removes corrosive bacteria and, in the case of raw denim, removes starch, which breaks down the fibers and contributes to crotch blowouts, etc.. You'll be fine on the fade front whether you choose to wash regularly or not.
