How many pairs of pants do you own?

I was going through my underwear draw today and was wondering if to have, ahem, 30 pants is a lot? While i was at uni they served their purpose well- i didnt have to do washing often, but now i do actually do weekly washing im thinking perhaps its time the granny pants went in the bin (i have nice pants too).

So how many do you have?and how many is too much?

I have 9. But they are old. It is about time for some Big Pant Trekking.

I have 2. Though, I went crazy and have 5 shirts.

Five pairs of jeans, six pairs of work pants, two pairs of light summer pants and… three pairs of workout pants.

I have six pairs. Two for work and four for playing video games.

The OP is talkin’ that UK talk - she means UNDERWEAR!

I have about 20 pair - some are really old and I never wear them. some are fancy and I rarely wear them. I have about 6 new pairs, and 6 more serviceable pairs.

Hippo, by “pants” do you mean the UK colloquialism of “undies” or just general trou?

If we’re talking about underwear, that’s a good question.

I was definitely guilty of buying more underwear instead of doing laundry in university. I’d say I have at least 30 pairs. Maybe more…

Ohhhh, UNDERWEAR.

Well shoot. I dunno. A drawerful.

Probably 35 pairs. I buy them when I don’t feel like doing laundry. :o

Underwear - no clue. 20, perhaps.

Pants - three that fit and I can wear among people. Four or five that I haven’t thrown out since before I lost weight. Four or five pairs of sweatpants. Hey, I’m a sucker for comfort.

Up until recently, zero. Then I started developing a taste for…more exotic types of underwear. I would say 6 now. (though they are not for daily wear)

I’ve got those 5 or 6 pairs that you buy and they turn out to fit weird because that brand’s size is different. I’ve got 2 or 3 old ones. I’ve got about 15 regulars that I rotate around my schedule. I’ve got two “nice” pair.

This reminds me that I need to go through and toss the old ones.

Oh, that explains “granny pants” then. I was picturing something made out of polyester.

I have about 20 pairs. You can never have too many. They don’t take up much room.

I have about 18-20 pair of undies. I had another ten or so more but since they were too big on me now and they were still in very good shape, I gave them to a thrift store recently. All of mine are granny panties. Serviceable, durable, economical cotton, they are.

About 21 pair or so. I like to have enough to go three weeks without laundry, because I’m lazy like that. :slight_smile:

Oh, and another 3 that are only put on for the sole purpose of being taken off… if you get my drift.

Given what the OP is actually referring to, I find this post hilarious.

I have 20 pairs of undies, maybe. Maybe 30. I’m always buying new panties, so at any given time I may have 10 pair I have no intention of wearing unless I start running out of options.

I’m Hippo’s dad, and she’s out at the moment, so I’ll answer for her: she means underwear or knickers as we call them here.

BTW, Inigo Montoya, I’ve always wanted to say that you have the best location I’ve ever seen. Really clever. :slight_smile:

Hello!!!

Yes i mean UNDERWEAR!!!

So if all you americans thought i meant trousers…what do you call your underwear that covers your bum? im trying to think but can only come up with knickers, undergarments, bloomers or pants?!! but they all sound so english.

And its good to know im not the only one who has loads of pants…my favourites are ones with fireman sam on (they are retro!!!)

P.S-Thanks dad for filling in for me there. You didnt say how many pants you have though?!!
