It's the reverse for me. New clothes feel uncomfortable, sometimes. Then, the more I wear it, they keep getting comfortable.

Maybe, look up tye ingredients of your detergent? Also, consider using treated-soft water for washing clothes. Hard water (water with minerals) can damage the fabric.

Should be like that, they may look worse but feel more comfortable with washes.

Natural fibers trend to get softer and thus more comfortable. I'm not sure this is true of synthetics. What kind of materials are your clothes, OP?
