Cost-per-wear

Cost-per-wear is a metric that helps you decide which products to buy. It saves money, the environment and makes you feel better.

Whenever I have to make a purchase, I consider cost-per-wear over the upfront price. This is due to numerous reasons.

Firstly, considering cost-per-wear adjusts for product quality and longevity. Look at the table below:

Product Cost Expected Wears CPW
A $50 250 $0.2
B $100 1000 $0.1

As you can see, Product B is the clear winner in terms of value, despite being cheaper upfront compared to product A. As a result, cost-per-wear saves you money in the long run.

Another reason I consider cost-per-wear is because of product quality. Premium products just feel better to use. They can add that feeling of luxury in your day-to-day life.

Companies that produce high-quality products in an age where it seems like most manufacturers are producing cheap, barely usable products ought to be supported.

Lastly, cost-per-wear is (mostly) environmentally conscious. Buying a product that’s made using sustainabilly-sourced, high-quality materials allows you to use the product for longer and ensures that it doesn’t end up in a landfill sooner.

In conclusion, cost-per-wear helps me purchase products in a way that benefits everyone. Me, the company, and the environment.
