I give them a wash when I first buy them, then never again unless they actually get something on them, which is very infrequent.
This question doesn’t apply to jeans you’re wearing to work in, and expect to get dirty.

Also dirt can cause wear and tear too. It gets into or between the fibers and acts as a light abrasive as they flex with movement. Honestly I don’t know where the inflection point is between dirt wear and washing wear, but the minimum wear point is not “never wash”.
I don’t get how anyone thinks washing wear is what limits the lifetime of any pants. Knees and thighs are always what gives out first on any pants I’ve owned with the exception being tears from snagging. Wearing pants is what wears them out, not washing.
