What's the oldest piece of clothing you have and still wear?

[AngryLizard]

Mine is a t-shirt from The Red Tractor Cafe that I got on an impromptu road trip up to San Francisco with by best friend, back in 1994. I sleep in it these days. It's been across the country with me, and back, and it's just comfy enough and just tight enough, and doesn't even have any holes.

You?

6. I have at least a few shirts from high school that I wear

I graduated in 1996. One shirt I knew that I had as a sophomore because I was wearing it for a school picture.

7. An old gray long sleave abercrombie shirt from 1995 or so

torn and frayed, very comfy.

8. I wear six year old shoes

Actually they could very well be older. I've lost count.

I don't plan on tossin em until I have a hole in them.

I have some 8 year old T shirts but I only wear those when goin to bed.

My High School Band Drum-Major T-shirt. Circa 1983-84 and although it's a bit tight around the chest, I still sleep in every now and thank, thank you very much :)

12. My oilskin slicker

I've been wearing since the cowboy days. Gotta be 25 years and it still looks good (in an oilskin kind of way). Lots of miles on it but it's one of the most practical garments I own.

[AlCzervik]

13. An Ozzy shirt i got at a concert in 1981.

it's my painting shirt or when it's time for heavy duty house cleaning.

[WannaJumpMyScooter]

15. Leather flight jacket from my first tour on a carrier, 1977

still looks great too.

[slackmaster]

16. Original Navy Blue Hang Ten T-Shirt ca. 1970

Sorry, no pic.

[amazona]

17. Born to Run T-shirt from Springsteen concert

So that's what? 1972? It fits because I'm still the same size but I rarely wear it because we don't wear T-shirts that fit close to the body these days unless we're 13. Hmmm.

The conservation movement is a breeding ground of communists
and other subversives. We intend to clean them out,
even if it means rounding up every birdwatcher in the country.

18. A pair of gray shorts I bought for soccer when I was thirteen

The shorts are almost thirteen years old now.

[LynzM]

19. A t-shirt from 83-84

From a road race/bike day my parents participated in. I actually have two of them, and they're the softest shirts I own. I'm amazed they are still in one piece!

[Nitrogenica]

20. My Underwear

(drum roll)

[tigereye]

[Lydia Leftcoast]

23. The sweater that my grandmother knit for me while on a car trip

out West in 1965.

[Hans Delbrook]

24. I have a madras plaid blouse

I bought in 1983. It doesn't show the wrinkles and goes w/ everything. However I think it maybe be doomed to yard and house work now. Weird black spots (mold?) showed up on it last year and didn't come out w/ one washing. Though to be honest, I don't remember what the status was when I put it away for the season. Maybe I had gotten it clean.

[psychopomp]

25. Every winter I break out the police surplus coat I bought in 87

I have been wearing that coat since I was a sophomore in H.S. As it is dark blue, I didn't have to wash it until two years ago.}(

Buy army and police surplus! That stuff is built to last!

[Philosophy]

26. Nike swoosh t-shirt that's mostly holes, circa 1988

There's one real big hole on the back where I got it caught on a door handle once. But if I stand facing frontwards no one notices.

[PartyPooper]

27. I still have some of my baby clothes...including shoes

But, sadly, I can't wear them anymore.

:-(

[sleipnir]

28. My thong underwear.

It's got a couple of dancing hyenas on the front. ON the back, you can barely read it, it says, "Have a howling good time."

Damn that thing fits like a glove after 12 years. Only on special occasions though.
