I got a winter coat when I was 18. I wore it until I was 29. I only threw it out because it was falling apart so bad that I was annoying my coworkers because it would literally leave trails of jacket bits all over the place. I bought a $15 replacement and its gonna last at least another 5-10 years before I replace it again. No reason to waste money buying something new every year when what I already have works fine.
