I treat my stuff quite well, so they do last. But sadly, that doesn't really stop me from buying new stuff I like.
For example, I've now got probably 50 pairs of shoes accumulated over the last 15 years. Shoes seem to last a long time for me, as I have a couple pairs I designate as beater shoes that I wear for rougher stuff, that get worn out and replaced. But for the the majority of my other pairs, they only get worn a few times thoughout the year. But then, I keep buying shoes I like, while not getting rid of any of my old ones.
I've also got I'd say about 15 jackets accumulated over the last 20 years that I still wear. They all last and are pretty good quality. I've not bought a jacket in 3 years though, so I guess I've stopped there for a bit.
