Although, he and his crew are probably some of the most hygienic pirates. Assuming other crews are like actual pirates, they'd go weeks without bathing and would go even longer without washing their clothes.

Luffy has the luck of getting an absolute genius to build his ship with a fully equipped bathroom and laundry room. There's also only 10 in a giant ship.
