general What Is The Oldest Piece of Clothing You Own?

[Rainy Daze 1,699]

For me, it's some t-shirts I've had since before I was ten that I still wear as pyjamas, along with some super comfy underwear that are maybe five years old at most.

A pair of old black school trousers that still fit. So they're over two decades old.

That's a pair of trousers older than me

Oldest piece of clothing I personally own is a trench coat my grandpa got around 30 years ago that my mom recently gave to me.  
 

My mom still has a couple of dresses she wore when she was a kid back in the 60s though lol.

I got rid of most of my old stuff once it no longer fit, so 4-5 years back is probably the oldest my clothing has been. Though I did keep my dad's letterman jacket from when he was in high school... back in the early 70s

That actually reminded me that I have a hat from my late step father that's probably fifteen years old at least!

I own an Eddie Guerrero t-shirt I had when I was 12. It obviously doesn’t fit me anymore, but I keep it around anyway for sentimental value, I want to be able to hang it in a frame eventually

I still wear a jacket from 2005, it has big holes in it, the zipper is mostly broken. The reason is, I like it, and it is painted in my IRL friend's famous book. I like being able to show I am the one in the book

This one sweater I bought from hot topic when they were still gothic af, I used to wear it under my shirts for a layered look.  I still think it's a cool shirt so I've never really had the heart to get rid of it or give it away.  Sometimes, it might languish in my "To donate" pile and then I run over and put it back in my closet like, "omg, I'm so sorry hunny, I still love you".  It's too short for me right now since I'm taller than when I first bought it(I think I was 11??? when I first got it).  I'm 29 currently.  I'm surprised it hasn't fallen apart yet, though I haven't worn it all that much, maybe 20 times in the time I've had it?  I love the shirt though and I doubt I'll be getting rid of it any time soon.  I can still fit it, it's pretty stretchy, I think I'll try making an effort of wearing it more, I love that shirt.

I have a pair of sweat pants I’ve owned for years now. They are torn a bit on the bottom and are stretched out but I love them. They are so comfortable! I won’t rid myself of then anytime soon.

[DubWolf 15,751]

I've had shirts since.... at least 10-11 years ago, and still in good shape  . A bunch of school ones I'm aware of.

Nice! A fellow Eddie Guerrero fan

That I know of, it's about 3 pairs of the same pajama shorts. My parents used to work at a clothing factory and they made a few too many for a specific order for an airline so they brought some home even before I was born.

[DixonTheAdversary 1,626]

I've got a couple baseball hats from the 80's and a Grateful Dead shirt from 1995.

[EpicEnergy 21,472]

The oldest thing I have is probably only a few years old, I don't have anything that is extremely old.

My  great grandmothers handkerchiefs she sewed herself.

I have a bunch of Star Wars shirts from when I was little and some that are hand-me-downs even older than me. Even though I don’t fit them all I still keep them because I never throw away anything Star Wars. So a lot of those are 20 years old or older. I have a pair of Disneyland socks that are a good ten years old, and I wear lots of vintage stuff from thrift stores, which are very old in some cases even though I haven’t had them in my own wardrobe for very long.

[TBD 16,743]

Oldest is one uniform from the Vietnam war worn by the American which I found in the vintage store and my grandpa uniform since he used to serve for his country, Vietnam. I love collecting old uniforms from the wars.

The kitty cat Halloween costume I wore when I was one.

I mean the majority of clothes I own are from middle school. I can also fit in my 9th grade swimsuit.

[Brony Number 42 8,681]

I still fit into a shirt that is older than some people here.

[SharpWit 2,317]

Technically the oldest I have would be the hat they put on me at the hospital when I was born, but for clothing I still wear, it's a crimson tshirt that says Coug Life on the front, and Straight Outta Pullman on the back ,that I've had since 2006 I think. Originally wore it as a night shirt but now it's an occasional anyday shirt. I still have a fair number of clothes I wear from the 8th grade which would have been 2011.
