Still rockin my Def Leppard concert t shirt from 1988

I mean. Coats. Shoes. Shirts. Pants.

All have different lifespans.

A long ass time, generally.

I have vacubags full of clothes I can still wear since my 30's (there were years I could not fit in them but when divorced most of them fit. When I do drag something vintage out some woman always tells me that I made a great find...

A classic collection of Charlie Harper shirts and Capri pants ROFLROFLROFLROFL


Most of what I would still wear are 2000 up/. golf shirts, dress shirts. I have about 20 Italian designer shirts, never worn, but If I drop 10 more lbs.....

Signed Boston tee

I keep t-shirts until they are vaporized practically.

Still have some 80s Cosby sweaters and authentic 70's aloha shirts that I inherited. Just can't seem to part with them for sentimental reasons.

This thread feels incomplete without SR. He should be here.

I’m cheap and I give no ****s about fashion. ****s are given about comfort though so I have some decent clothes that fit and I wear them until forever.

I still have some T-shirt’s from high school. Most of my work clothes end up shredded but I do have some that are 10+.

I’d say the average age of articles of clothing are 3 years old. My work clothes and socks and underwear skew that.

Don't those rock tee shirts break down, fade and generally get ratty-looking from washing. I find they don't have a long shelf life. Those I have to toss within 5 years—even shorter. I guess if you wear it once or twice a year it's not a problem.

I know I have a few things that at least go back to 1997.

Until the blood stains won’t come out anymore.

So what I'm kind of confirming here by the responses is that Big Textile is on some bullshit with their suggested lifespans on clothing. Except for socks, maybe.
