Shoes and glasses frames are the worst for not being able to just buy the same thing for all time. Glasses have gotten better since I was a kid but shoes worse. I’ve given up on shoe aesthetics since Mizuno makes upgrades the same model with different colors. Looks like the current version of Wave Rider is 27.

Edit: Regarding total stock of clothes: this is a tricky balance between storage and wash cycle. Ideally I would do laundry nightly for day clothes and daily for pajamas so that no storage was necessary. With ~7 days storage already seems excessive since most days of the week there is more dirty than clean. It also only requires one load of laundry. With ~14 days that is twice the storage and while there are fewer batch operations there doesn’t seem to be a time savings since it would require two loads . . . Wait, do you scale in parallel by using a laundromat?
