If you were not allowed to acquire any new clothes, how long do you think your current wardrobe would last? (lemmy.ca)

Context: I noticed I have some clothes from 10 years ago that are still good to wear, and some newer things I have barely worn yet. I wondered if I reached a point where all the clothes I own would be enough to last for the rest of my life. There is a dresser and a closet worth of things.

For the sake of this question, let's say you can't buy, borrow, steal, receive as a gift, find, or make anything new to wear. All you get is what you have now. Is it enough?

Well, that depends. Most of my pants and shirts and such last a long time.

But I go through socks and boxers pretty damned fast.
