I give them a wash when I first buy them, then never again unless they actually get something on them, which is very infrequent.
This question doesn’t apply to jeans you’re wearing to work in, and expect to get dirty.

Detergent and washing are not the only ways to remove smells. Airing out cotton works quite well, and if it’s merino wool, even better.
Also, genetics play a role as some people just dont sweat much or have BO.
There is no one size fits all here, and reducing wash cycles makes cloths last longer, especially cheap ones. That being said, smell your cloths. If they smell, at all, wash them.
Hah, yup, that is a nice one.
Yeah, my SO has the gene where they have no BO, but I have the opposite. Fresh out of the shower I can ruin 48h deodorant in under 6.
Mine too, but backwards. I can go backpacking for a week and smell nearly the same, while she smells like… well… unsavory.
