Oldest in the sense of “owned for the longest amount of time”: a pair of jeans I got as a teenager whose pockets are literally rectangles of denim sewn onto the outside of the legs. Not the most stylish, but it was finally a pair of pants that I could actually use the pockets for storing things like phone, wallet, mp3 player without them digging into my hip whenever I take a step.
Started off as everyday wear, then shifted to being “work” clothes (as in manual labor) and horse riding pants once they became tattered enough - especially the heels.
Oldest in terms of “year manufactured”: it’s a tossup between some of my dad’s t shirts from the 80s that I use as pyjamas, and a woolen sweater my grandmother knitted before I was born.
Whoops, didn’t see that this was in c/women’s stuff. I don’t identify as a guy most of the time, but I don’t necessarily identify as a woman either and so it doesn’t really feel right to comment or post here unless someone explicitly invites me to.
I like to hang out here cause y’all have discussions that I don’t really hear or see elsewhere and I also feel like it helps diminish my own blind spots. It’s a welcome respite from the “man is default” tone of the rest of the web.
I can delete my root / the parent comment if it bothers anyone, and/or this one as well.
