How to spot that you are short of something

Short answer: You are short of something when you wash midweek, or when you put on something worn out because the rest is in the wash. Both are signs of too few of one kind.

Do you wash midweek

Then you have too few of something. Most often it is underwear or socks. See bamboo underwear for men.

Do you put on something worn out

If you are using the worst pairs because the rest is in the wash, it is time to top up.

The bottom of the drawer

If there are pieces there you never use, they are either the wrong size or worn out.

Check once a year

Go through the drawer at the change of season. See how to get the wardrobe ready for winter.

Replace together

If half of them are worn out, replace the whole stack. See how to tell that clothes are worn out.

For women

See the corresponding items in bamboo underwear for women.

Washing

Correct washing puts off the need for new ones. See the washing guide.
