People talk all the time here about how washing thier raw jeans ruins them after just one try etc etc... Well I wash my jeans after every wear... So how would I clean them? (I'm a bit of a clean freak)

Air 'em out. Febreeze. That's about it.

No, but it makes them seem cleaner, and beyond that who gives a **** unless you've been in some sort of biohazard environment.

Just make sure you wear clean underwear every day, do not spill stuff all over them, air them on a very pleasant day and use a lot of febreeze. Other than that, it shouldn't be that hard to get through the year or so.

I haven't washed any of my raw/one-wash denim ever. I rotate about 12 pairs so I just hang them up and air them out when I'm not wearing them. Since I haven't gotten any of them dirty, they have been just fine. They smell fresh just like when I first got them. I do the same for any of my sweaters/jackets/blazers, and wash underwear and t-shirts, polos, etc after every couple times.

the only thing that makes me wash my clothes is when the bar-smoke smell becomes too nauseating

Alternatively, just start smoking so that the fresh smoke smell will cover up the stale. ;D

I'm hoping that you wash your underwear after every wearing
