I don't, when I buy new clothes it usually b/c I have nothing clean to wear anyway. I'll even wear stuff from the thrift shoppe w/out washing it.

I wash everything to get the dye out. Have you seen how much dye comes out of stuff!

True story: I bought some new boxers at wally world, well next morning I'm late for class so I rip the pack open and throw on a pair. Well I do my daily routine, school, go for a jog (Trying to lose th freshman 15!) well I went into the bathroom to shower and when I pulled the boxers off the entire area covered by the boxers was the color of the boxers, green! Inlcuding my John Thomas!! I freaked and had to srub for an hour to return my crotch to normal color!

So yes, I wash everything.

I hope that everybody washes new underwear, even the people who don't wash their new clothes. This applies especially to women since panties/bras are often tried on at the store.
