I'm pretty sure underwear isn't being counted in this 3 items. The average garment is worn less than 50 times and 20% of clothes are worn less than 3 times. A full 10% of clothing is never worn at all--just mass produced and sent straight to the dump. The authors are rightfully pointing out that this needs to be tackled and they used existing research to calculate the amount that could be sustainably produced. They also are only focusing on new garments as buying used doesn't contribute to that waste. (In fact it's estimated that there are enough clothes on earth right now to adequately clothe the entire Earth's population for 6 generations!)
