That being said, one pair of pants? Ehhhhhhhh. I got away with three during college, and I still only have 4 (unless you count the scrubs, but those have to be washed with hot water.) but what do you do while those are washing/drying? Esp if they're jeans and they take 2+ days to dry?
Gotta love that "conservative" side of life

Jeans never dry around here in the summer time...

I wore khaki uniform pants for years that would pretty much dry overnight, only paid a $1 a pair at the thrift shops. I suspect those were a cotton/poly blend.

I am in the process of weeding down my closet now, only saving grace is that my company provides uniforms for us, so that is 11 sets of clothes that I don't have to really worry about.
