What's the oldest article of clothing you still wear?

[Kitty 34]

I still wear a 'Fall' jacket going on 12 years old!!! I think I'm about ready to retire it!!

I have a red, winter dress coat, about 20 years old. Very simple, classic style, and rarely worn. It still looks great today!

I also have a pair of jeans that are at least 10 years old. VERY faded, worn through at the knees, and other spots, but oh so comfortable! I only wear them around the house, and I'll keep doing that until they disintegrate!

For sentimental reasons I still have my rain slicker my brother bought me, I was 13, he was 18. when I wear it people comment how nice it s and where did I get it. You can't but slickers like this one anymore....I am now 45 and love this rain gear I have. It is blue and can be reversed to have a white pattern with whales on it.

Well, I have a ton of clothes that are vintage - circa 1950's. I collect old clothing and shoes, don't really wear them, just collect them.

As far as clothing I bought new that I still wear - like Kim, I have a few pieces that are classic with simple lines that are about 10 years old. A black suit that I've had since the 80's, still fits, and is still in style. Since I also collect new shoes, I have many pairs of shoes that I bought 10 or more years ago that I still wear. With over 150 pair, none of my shoes get wore out.

Probably one of my bras. I hate to buy new bras.

GAP Sweatshirt. From about 10 years ago. It's te most comfy article of clothes I own! Although it's a bit snug - I now only wear it around the shouse or down the shore.

My leaisure suite, I still wear it all the time

That I wear? I have a Disneyland T-shirt that is 8 years old - it is really getting threadbare - but it has Mickey on it!

I have some items at the back of my closet that are probably 8 to 10 years old - but I never wear them. About 2 sizes too small right now.

Hmm.....off the cuff, I can think of 3 sweatshirts (Identical style, different colors) that are about 10 years old. Oh, yeah, and one pair of underpants that is that old. LOL Before you all "Ewwww" about it, they are a design I never particularly liked, and so I only wear them when they are the last pair left in the drawer and I haven't done laundry. I've probably worn them maybe 6 times in 10 years, but I see them in my drawer everytime I open it. I don't know why I don't just get rid of them, I guess because I can't fathom giving a pair of undies to goodwill, and they are in fine shape so I don't feel like I should throw them away.

Now I feel like putting them on, just because. LOL

[The Mystery Machine]

I do have some old clothes from my past that I have BUT something I actually wear is my college sweatshirt that is
16 years old!!!

Lets see, I have a dress from 1990.. I guess I should let it go to Goodwill.

I just got rid of some suits/work clothes from when I was Pre-Pregnancy (circa 1993!)

Shoes.. well, I am wearing an older pair of shoes from that time period right NOW! (They are still comfy!)

I have some tank tops from the early 80's I use for layering!

About 15 years ago I made a lot of seasonal sweatshirts. I would cut out a design iron it on with fusable interfacing and then I put washable paint about the edges. I still have them and usually wear them. I have a St. Patrick's one, an Easter one, ect. I usually just wear them on the holiday.

Hmmm... most of my clothes are fairly new. I'm pretty young (21) so anything 16 years old certainly wouldn't fit me anymore, LOL. I think the oldest thing that I wear regularly is my GAP fleece hoody that I got 4 years ago.

 

[whirlsy]

a 17 year old night shirt that has the university of Michigan emblem (sp) on it ~my dad bought it for me when i was 16 and since he passed away I dont have the heart to throw it away~ It still looks great!

 

[Serena]

I have some old t-shirts that I wear.

 

[Saffron]

OMG! I have an outfit that I wear that's older than #1 Disney Fan! I bought it in 1978 so that makes it, *gulp* 22 years old! ROTFLOL!!!!! Remember little girl one piece sunsuits that have little spagetti straps, elastic around the top, the waist and around the shorts legs that snap up? Well, that's what this is, and it has a matching full, round skirt that's below knee length that you wear over top. It's really cute, but I only wear it maybe once a year.

 

[addicted_to_WDW]

I have a blue nightshirt that my grandma bought me when I was 16 or 17. It's rather hideous, and has a big cowboy boot and lasso on the front.

I'm 34 now, and still wear the thing once a week or so.
