using watso's micro washing system, watso wears his clothes often, and wears them out. 5 minutes a day with the micro washer, and watso does not have a pile of washing in the washing basket.
having a quick read at some items of interest in the thread :-
...a) bamboo socks - sounds ok - but (from the net)..
Bamboo is often cited as an environmentally friendly textile option, as it grows quickly and requires minimal pesticide use. Unfortunately, in order to create bamboo fibres, the plant must be soaked in harsh chemicals, thus adding to the earth’s toxic load. Further, some companies claim that their clothing boasts bamboo’s antimicrobial properties, but in actuality the chemical process strips bamboo fibres of their inherent antimicrobial benefits.
..b) - wool socks sound pretty good, and also do not need to be washed as often. watso read somewhere that they should be hand washed, but elsewhere, watso read that they can just be put in the washer - which is what used to happen with watso's wool/polyester socks.
socks are best washed in watso's microwasher - just a bit of warm water and detergent (or woolwash for wool socks) - shake for 30 - 60 seconds, then rinse

using the amazing watso micro washing system, a person only really needs two pairs of socks , (or two pairs of undies, 2 singlets etc etc) - then wear them often, until they wear out.
there was a news item the other day about shortages in Venezuela - and the very last bit was a woman saying that she cannot get parts for her washing machine... if only she had bought one of watso's micro washers, (which do not have any moving parts), then she would still have the cleanest panties in the country
