I have three shirts in good condition I got in 2007. Two are t-shirts, one is a plaid overshirt. I've had to re-sew the overshirt a few times.
I also have at least one pair of pants from the same time period, same thing, have patched and sewn it up when needed.
Anyway, I'm glad to know I'm not the only person who takes good care of their clothing so they don't have to spend much on it.
Tips: Don't dry things like t-shirts in a dryer. Wash them on a delicates cycle with a small amount of vinegar to help cut through bad smells, and then hang them out to dry. Get a clothes drying rack if you can, and if you're in humid climate, get a dehumidifier for the room you dry your clothes in. Finally, learn some basic hand-sewing techniques.
