Frequent wearing and washing can indeed lead to wear and tear on garment fabrics.
Firstly, from a wearing perspective, friction between the body and clothing, especially at joints such as knees and elbows, can lead to gradual wear and tear on the fabric. Long term friction not only causes the fabric to become thinner, but also may cause pilling, damage, and other phenomena. In addition, if there are sharp or rough parts in clothing design, such as zippers, buttons, etc., they may also cause additional wear and tear to the fabric during the wearing process.
Secondly, the washing process can also cause certain wear and tear on garment fabrics. The mechanical forces in washing machines, the effects of detergents, and water temperature can all have adverse effects on fabrics. Especially for some thin or sensitive fabrics, such as silk, wool, etc., improper washing methods can easily lead to fabric deformation, shrinkage, or damage.
In addition, frequent washing can accelerate the aging of fabrics. The chemical detergents used during the washing process, as well as the minerals in the water, may cause damage to the fabric fibers, resulting in the fabric gradually losing its original luster and elasticity.
