Sometimes I will use something and realize I’ve owned it forever. It’s a nice change in our throwaway reality. I think my personal record is a bicycle multi-tool I got for one of my first bikes, ~25 years ago. Still have it, still use it. When it comes to electronic devices I have a Panasonic mini Hi-Fi from ~2005. Never felt like changing it.
What’s your record?
Bought some walking boots in 1991 that I only got rid off last year (they finally broke). Except Antarctica they’ve been on every continent. Felt quite sad saying goodbye.
Which brand/model?
Trezeta, which is an Italian brand of hiking goods. Not sure of the model, it’s been so long ago.

Alright, it wasn’t quite last year, I realised :) Time moves fast in your 40s.
I got confused with x.com I was like what was this person wearing boots on a porno site?. And then it hit me, this is Twitter and not some shady port site
I know, it looks so weird. Just how twitter creates share-links now.
Old boot porno. Internet rule 34 in action.
