Yes, our laundry always stinks. The job is super dirty in the summer, with the sweat and added wet cleaning of pools, and I've come home pretty filthy before. But when I do, at least 9/10ths of the crud ends up on my bare skin (or, in some tragic cases, my hair). Exhausting research has lead me to conclude that it is a lot easier to wash mud, blood, and fecal matter off of your bare forearms and shins than it is off of the sleeves of your winter coat, or long pants.
Plus, being bulkier, winter clothes fill up a hamper and washing machine much more quickly than shorts and t-shirts, no matter how begrimed they are. So you end up doing more and grosser laundry, but with more mediocre results.
On the plus side, washing and drying and folding your still-unclean work clothes gives you an excuse to spend more time inside where its warm.
