    I've had my same jacket for at least 25 years now.

    No set time, I have a lot of jackets but don’t really buy to replace the older ones just buy one when I see one I like. I didn’t buy a new one this winter though Cos I barely left the freakin house.

    We were finally allowed to leave the house again last week, but there was a snow storm the first day the “stay at home order“ was lifted so I was snowed in for an extra two days lol. You won’t need another jacket this year Cos I believe you guys are locked down till mid March. Good luck with that ;)

    i live in Mississauga now and we’re still stuck in stay at home until March 8th 

    they extended the order to the surrounding regions like three days after we moved 

    can never catch a break

    That sucks :/I think you guys started before us too. We didn’t start our last lockdown until Boxing Day and it was looong enough. I have missed working from home the past week though. I loved that.

    But think of all the money you saved on new jackets this winter.

    I don't. If you think about it. That's the whole problem with this world. That's why I have 3 in order to lessen pollution from greed. We don't need to be this egotistical. I barter with what already is.
    I'm not finished with this one so don't start another. Trash making! Just wash it. This post was edited by CosmicWunderkind at February 23, 2021 5:56 PM MST

    the problem is the jacket I bought is white, which in hindsight wasn’t really a great idea

    It was so long ago, I can't remember. I was still in the Navy, though. Probably about 35 years ago. I don't wear it very often. We had some negative temps last week and I didn't need it.

    I probably bought my winter jacket about 7 years ago and it's still in great shape.  Unless it falls apart, I don't see any reason to replace it.

    Haven't done for several years. The one I wear from about May through September is still in good shape.

    I don't own one.  I lived in Washington State and didn't own one.  I hate coats.  I keep a blanket in the car (or I did before I moved to the tropics).
