oldest clothes meme

I happened to be wearing my oldest piece of clothing today:


I love this shirt (mainly for its ability to be scrunched in a corner of a drawer for weeks and still not need ironing). I think I got it about 10 years ago (for 15 little commonwealthlandian dollars), the first time my mum just gave me money for clothes rather than me going shopping with her. I'm not too good at trusting my own judgement, but in this case I think I did a good job. Sadly, it set a precedent for value and longevity in clothes purchases that I haven't been able to match since.
Of course, 10 years is nothing compared to some people's oldest clothes so I wasn't sure it was worth posting about. But then I remembered something that may even match some of Jo(e)'s entries:
