well...
for me, i usually wear them for about 6 months before discarding them or sending them to the salvation army.
thats just for outing clothes though...
for home colthes, i will wear them for years!!!
the older, the more comfortable and the more sought after it will be...
so what about you?
and what do you do to your old clothes?

That would really depend on what clothes you are referring to.
Those that I wear to sleep has been with me for years.
Those that I wear to work will depend on the condition. Some last for years. Some last for a little over a year.
Most times, with old clothes, if I get the chance to donate them, I will. Otherwise, it is sold to the rag and bone man for a few dollars.

I will usualy keep soemthing up to a year or more if it is still in good condition. I do clean out my closet every 6 months and donate anything old or that I have so many of to this charity that runs through my church.

I wear my clothes longer than 6 months.
I wear them until they fall apart or they no longer fit.
The ones that no longer fit, I send to Goodwill.

You're very lucky that you could have new clothes every 6 months. For me It takes years before I discard my clothes. Usually I would give them to my younger brother or sometimes even to my father. Well some of my clothes become home clothes too after it has been used.

I totally agree with you, with the home clothes. The older the better comfort you get. For the other clothes it may relly depend. If it does not look good anymore, it usually goes for donations. My mom gives it away or put it somewhere.
