I’m a scarf person myself. And I’ve worn the same coat for about 25 years. There’s another mom in our science co-op who has a very similar coat, and she’s had it for at least 20 years, too.

lol....I just bought a new down coat. My 30 year old down coat is still my go to. I'm in Upstate NY and I have the old coat on my chair. If I sit up straight...it's cozy.

I'm 82...and the cold is colder for us old folks...believe me.

I probably have clothes older than some Freepers (suit I bought in Paris is 50 years old). Quality clothing lasts a long time...and yes, I can still wear the suit.
