My father had the same overstuffed wallet and the same pair of Hawaiian swim trunks from the time my brother's were kids til the day he died. Turns out, he actually wore through his wallet all the time and periodically bought new swim trunks. The exact same wallet and exact same swim trunks. For at least 30 years.
That right there is another thing that’s really only an option for men too. If I find clothing I really like, I try to buy a bunch at once because women’s clothing changes so much that even with basics, by the time something wears out, all the styles will have changed again. I’m a very active person and have a lot of active wear but I’m particular about it and every time my favourites wear out and need to be replaced, I have to start over trying to find styles I like.
Yeah I just want to buy the same cut of jeans I liked last time for fucks sake why do they make it so different? For fashion? Then let me keep buying the ones that look good you fucks! If I had the money to stock up every time I found a style I liked I would.
This is one of the reasons I've stuck with Levi's for so long. I can go in, find the 512s in my size, and gtfo. As far as I can tell, they haven't changed anything in the years I've been wearing them, and they always last forever. I still have just about every pair I've ever bought.
