El Presidente Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Ok to be fair, Hamlet hadn't been home for four days and had run out of clothes. When we said our goodbyes yesterday, I simply stared at him in horor at what he was wearing. Stylistically I would tag it "mexican gangster meets the homeless" "I ran out of clothes Mother****er" my Mom found these" The shirt was straight out of abuelo's 70's closet. What is the oldest piece of clothing you still have and wear? I have my frangipani flower beach shirt from the 80's. Favourite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuzz Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Do ties count? I have ties from just before 2000. Also have a leather jacket, that I wear from time to time, from around the same period. As for shirts, pants, etc older than 10 years... none fit me now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbflash80 Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 I have a super bowl 19 49ers championship shirt that my parents bought for me in 1985...ive used it as a waist towel on football sundays for probably the last 30 years once it stopped fitting me as s shirt. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deeg Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 I have an Albert Richard leather jacket that’s pre-WW II - best guess early 30s. That would definitely be it for me (though I have a couple hats from the 50s). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cayman17 Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 I wore the tuxedo I bought for my 2005 wedding three nights ago for a black tie gala. Yes, I had to have the trousers let out a bit, but it still fits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrightonCorgi Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Official Ferrari jacket I bought at the 2001 Canadian Grand Prix. Has plenty of motor oil stains and smells like smoke, but shouldn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueRidgeFly Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Old chamois shirt from 1980-ish doing work in the yard yesterday, still looks pretty good... my wife does not agree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Str8BlkCoffee Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 I have an old Filson tin cloth cruiser from the 70's. It is pretty dirty but in great shape with no fraying. Stiff as a board when cold. It leans in the corner. ? Wife cannot stand it, says it stinks. Wind, water, thorns, and barbed wire doesn't faze it.

Wookie Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 I have penny-loafers that were my father's from the 1960s. Been re-soled at least a few times. Starting to fall apart but comfortable. They've walked a lot of cities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabbi Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 I have a few ties from the 40s and 50s, thankfully I no longer have to wear a suit and tie every day. I have a 40s Homburg that I bought from a cousin’s vintage clothing stock. It is just a tad small and too round to fit me, but it fits my son perfectly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akela3rd Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Belgian army jacket I bought at Glastonbury in 1987 for a quid from a second hand stall as I didn't take a coat with me and got cold at night. It's from 1967 or thereabouts and I still wear it today. Sent from GJ 1151 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subcomandante Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 I still wear T-shirt’s from 2000’s. Mostly sports related stuff. Some outdoorsy stuff from Columbia, REI from 2010’s. I feel like those items never really change other than slight modifications and advances in technology/material. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuzzArd Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Still have my late 70s Birdwell Beach Britches (NOTHING like a Budgie Smuggler, you Australian perverts...!) but God knows I’ll never get into them again... sigh... those were the days....

Smatthews607 Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 I have several tee shirts from recruit academy over 20 years ago. Yes, they still fit. And the tie that I wore to work today is at least 15 years old. I really hate buying new clothes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Habana Mike Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 After last year's fat bastard I found I could wear my suits from the early 90's. Not much call to wear suits anymore but they're there if I need them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoyopr Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 I have sent them back to Portland for resoling a couple of time and I still wear them and they are the most comfortable boots. I bought them probably in the mid - late 70's, mine look well worn, LOL. https://global.danner.com/men/hunt/sierra-8-brown-200g.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
