Lol, since we're going down this road... my clothing ends up getting stored more as a cache with an LRU policy. Every 6 months or so the items at the bottom of the drawer get assessed for eviction (donation). My favourite items are always on top, less used items are easy to find, and the unused items are easy to identify.

This is a much more efficient approach than Maria Kondo’s suggestion to hold each item up and determine its joy factor.

Do you not procure multiple copies of items that have a high value assessment?

I mean… I’ve got a bunch of fungible black t-shirts from Costco if that counts. They fit reasonably well.

There are a bunch of more expensive unique items too. I do actually find it a bit interesting to see which ones float to the top and which ones don’t.

Funny you mention Marie Kondo though. I do roll my clothes instead of folding them before putting them away into the cubes. I don’t entirely get it but it seems more space efficient that way.

Jeans get memoization! Wear them again before washing until something changes (e.g. spilled something on them) with an expiration time (e.g. 3 days or laundry day).
