What clothing items from your childhood do you still wear now?

The only item I’ve from my childhood that still fits is my signet ring.
Papa bought it from a trip to Barbados when I was 12 but it was too big. It was re-presented to me when I received my first college degree.
I wear it to this day.
 

If I still wore what I wore from my childhood, I'd be wearing cut offs, tshirts and my softball cap.
But if I could wear anything from the 70's it would be these babies:
592770
 
I have small feet and can fit into so kids shows as size 5 women’s is equivalent to size 3 youth but as I was a child in the 70s-early 80s my shoes are long gone.

I do have some of my jewelry from back then so that would work. 😂
 
I guess no exact items would still fit me, but overall I still wear some similar types of clothes and sneakers/shoes. One day even diapers may come back for me, the adult version of course!
 
Not the same ones I owned as a kid, but I have a new pair of Superstar Adidas. It has to have the distinctive shell toe. When I saw the newer smooth front version I cringed my nose. :snooty: Lol

Off topic, but my daughter is obsessed with an Esprit sweatshirt with a zippered collar I had in the 8th grade. She saw a photo of me in it and wants it soo bad. I’ve searched on eBay and a few other clothing websites, no luck. I was shocked she’d want my old clothes, but fashion is cyclical.

(and yes, that white thing on my shoulder is Goofy’s hand. Pic taken at DL in 1987.) :earboy2:
 
I have a bunch of t-shirts from when I was a kid/teen/college. I wear them to bed, but I have more than I could go through in a lifetime.
 
My umbilical cord has become a handy wallet chain?

Sorry, couldn't resist. I have absolutely no clothing from when I was a child, and I don't see how any could still fit if I did.

I do have some old shirts from high school, oldest one is a Pantera shirt, still fits.
 
I don't think I have any clothes from my childhood or teen years. The oldest thing I own is an Eagles t-shirt from a concert I went to in the early 90s.

Same with my 13 year old! I kind of wish I would've saved some of those 80s items.
 
I still have a handpainted skirt (elastic waist, haha) I bought at a bazaar in 1988 while attending HS abroad. It's art and a souvenir.
 
I don’t have any clothing items left from my actual childhood but we have Vans, Doc Martens, DH has some J Crew stuff from at least 25 years ago. I also bought my daughter some Ocean Pacific items a few years back. I loved their hoodies back in the day. I wish I still had my old jeans. I bet my DD would wear them. She probably would not wear my old Garanimals stuff, though. 😂
 
The only things I have are a couple football/baseball jerseys from high school that still fit.
 
This t-shirt that I got at Disneyland in 1999 at age 8.

Fortunately my mum bought it big enough for me to grow into!

I also have this nightie that I got for Christmas when I was 5 (I asked Santa for Mickey pjs). It does fit me as a t-shirt although I’ve never got around to wearing it.

I think I have an old high school hoodie in a box somewhere.
 
I am currently wearing a floor length gauze teared dress but it is nothing like the one I wore in the late 70s! That one was purple and didn't have pockets!!
