I try to make them last as long as I can because with every wash they get thinner and thinner.
Small correction: it is not the washing but the drying. That is the lint you keep loosing from the clothes. Try drying the pants on a drying rack or similar/air dry/sun dry(but not in the dryer).

-I cannot keep any clothes made in Europe for more than 2 years because of shrinkage/wear
-some lined pants from Old Navy: after 3 years, I'm freezing in Mid-Georgia because of how thin they became
P.S. This i a good thread. i got some suggestions from here, since i'm tired of bad-fitting troll-looking jeans
P.S.2: What are some good looking nice dress jeans? Black color please, not washed grayish. Capable to be wear with a jacket, no tie. 5-pockets, nice fitting tights but no oversize, enough space upfront for the "family jewels", medium size behind.
Right now, still have some Turkish made Lotus brand, for about 16 years, which I keep specifically for dress occasions. But they start to show wear, so I'm looking for replacements.
