What is the age of the oldest article of clothing that you still wear?

Some of the braided belts and Doc's I see at church have to be at least 20 years old.

I think a BYU dri-fit button down that I have is about 10 years old has to be the oldest. Still looks good.

I have a black button down shirt that is about 20 years old....I haven't worn it in years, but it is still in the closet and I purge regularly. Just have never purged it for some reason.

My socks don't last nearly long enough to even come close, but sure socks too.

I still wear the same belt I did in 2002. It is my favorite belt and still fits in the same hole

I think you might be wearing your belt incorrectly.

Is it normal for people to track how old each article of clothing is?
