Quick answer

Cost per wear = price ÷ number of times you will wear it. A ₹4,000 pair of shoes worn twice a week for a year (about 100 wears) costs ₹40 per wear, while ₹1,200 shoes that last 30 wears cost ₹40 too. Lower cost per wear means better value.

How to use this calculator

  1. Enter the price of the item.
  2. Estimate how many times a month you will wear it and how many months it will last.
  3. Add a second option to compare.

Formula

Cost per wear = Price ÷ (Times worn per month × Months used)

The item with the lower cost per wear is better value over its life.
