How often do you change your pants?

[Ariel Badger]

Daily, once a week, when they get a brown streak/ spunky patch or when they stick to a mirror? Not that I am actually interested of course but I do presume you do change and wash them at some time.
However can you say the same about your leathers or other riding kit? My present leathers must be at least five years old and soap has been nowhere near them in that time. Am I alone in being a dirty unhygienic pig or is it normal?

As soon as they've undergone a thorough browning so after every ride into the midlands.

I did wash my textile jacket after the white went grey.

Apart from that it went a good 2 years of all sorts of abuse.

I used to clean and polish my boots

And my one mate cleans and moisturizes his leathers.

my pants. When the itching becomes unbearable.

My leathers, get sponge cleaned and moisturised once a month or so.

My bellstaff leather trousers are 12 years old and have never been washed.

Mind you, they get a thorough soaking from time to time. Does riding in the rain when you forgot your oilskins count as washing?

[TheShaggyDA]

My leathers just get turned inside out an left in the sun now and again. Never cleaned any of my jackets, textile or otherwise. If there's a particularly big bird poo or flock of grapefly I've been through, then maybe a wipe off with a damp bit of kitchen roll.

My leathers must be 15 years old and I've never cleaned the insides but then again a lot of people do more miles in a month than I do in a year And I always wear my lucky t-shirt underneath.

my textiles have been with me for 2.5 years and never washed , I just febreeze them in winter and stick them on the washing line in the summer to kill the smell,

Underpants are much more flexible!,

after say 4 weeks of wear you can turn them inside out and extend the wear time by 2 weeks!,

(only kidding I change me underpants regularly)

My Textiles are 2nd hand off ebay. I best wash them

[alun111]

I think I may well top all this...

I wear my draggins day in day out, whether i'm on the bike or not, wear them to gigs, to the pub..... the only places I don't wear them is my bed and in work.

I wash them probably every 6 weeks hahaha.

Change my boxers everyday though so it aint too disgusting.

[Zen Dog]

I washed my textiles when they started getting a smell that can only be described as "old incontinent dog" every time they got wet.

Apart from that, never wash my gear. My leather jacket is 10 years old and its never been washed, although it has had leather food once or twice.

I clean and moisturise my leathers fairly regularly (after long rideouts, or after riding through heavy rain).

As for underwear, I change that daily. My Draggins are now away for the winter, but they get washed at least once a week when I'm using them.

I am very pleased to see that unhygenic behavour is alive and well amongst the youngsters here. Traditions are there to be kept, well done lads.

Boxers usually a fresh pair every day, might stretch it out for a day or two if matters are dire

My draggin jeans are pretty much what i wear all the time as someone else said, on the bike, at home, mates houses, uni. They usually go about 3 weeks to a month then get a wash... They are just so comfy when dirty for some reason

My leather jacket i have had for about 3 years, never been washed, wouldent know where to start TBH, all i know is im never putting it in a washing machine. Something about leather jackets doesent require them ever to be washed IMO...

[chris-red]

I have never cleaned any of my riding kit (apart from my smelly gloves)

I wax my leathers every now and then to keep them in good order.

It's okay, girls don't smell. They don't poo either, even if they did they would be little malteasers that smell like the body shop.

My leather jacket's got a removable liner and I wash that once in spring and once in fall, along with the cheek pads from my helmet.

If by pants, you mean underpants, then every fucking day. I can't recall the last time I put on a dirty pair after getting out of the shower, which is a part of my daily routine.
