In our household, it's always my shirts that get holes. My DH is able to wear his shirts until they wear out, though he has an old orange sweatshirt that he's had forever that is still bright orange and still without holes. We got married in 1987, and he's had that shirt at least that long, lol. It's a poly/cotton blend I think, but mostly cotton; I take no special care when washing and drying it. This irritates me no end, because I wash my shirts in cool water on delicate cycle, and hang them to dry. They still develop holes. At least if I get the shirts on clearance, I won't feel that bad if they only last a season. I'm in no mood to pay top $ for shirts that aren't going to go the distance.
