I have a pair that's from my high school days. I'm 47 years old, so that makes the underwear about 30 years old. Can anyone top that?
The underwear is boys' size 20, but they still fit. They're a little threadbare, but that's an advantage on a hot summer day. I think I can get at least a few more years out of them. (Obviously, I don't wear this pair every day. I wear them mostly for dirty outside jobs.)
I'm a lifelong bachelor, so I don't have a wife to throw away my stuff that's old but still good. Married men are at a disadvantage here.
Finally a tip: save your worn out undies to clean your guns. They work great! Seriesly.
We try to prove we can survive on 10 dollars a year income.
I met a Farmer in PA, Harold, about 80 years old. He had multiple investment properties. Never Married. A multi millionaire many times over.
His house looked like a barn. It had one “chain pull” light bulb on the kitchen ceiling. His electric bill was probably about 10 dollars a month!!! In the year 2000 he was wearing 1970 cloths!!!
It’s not meant for that. It’s just there for “expandability”.
Sears... that could be the key. I have a sweater from Sears, which I was given in 1975 for a Christmas present. Didn’t wear it too much but always liked it, and it got through several closet-cleanings over the years. My daughter has recently adopted it as her own, and she wears it with some frequency. A few months back, a gal at my hair salon was wearing the SAME sweater, said she got it at a goodwill store, checked the label, it was the same - Sears.
What’s underwear?
I’m not really sure how old they are, but the size is written in Roman numerals.
Those are man panties.
What underwear? I wear those oversised t-shirts and somewhat oversized white briefs to sleep in.
I read your title again and had a horrible thought....
Does Helen Thomas have a FR account?

**Wow. I nominate this thread for the most bizarre vanity ever.**
Maybe this month.
30 year old underware I can understand, but this lifelong bachelor thing confuses me...
I'm sure you've taken one for a "test drive"? I can't understand why anyone wouldn't keep one in the garage so that they can drive it anytime they want to.
Sure, but you have to explain how they came into your possession.
I have a ‘lucky’ pair from 1982, the year my daughter was born.
I still have a pair of golf underwear from 1985. It has 18 holes in it. My wife used to get teed off every time I wore them.
Bad analogy. You turn a car off and on with a key.
Good point. I will add "green dye" to my shopping list.
This is, without a doubt, the stupidest vanity I have ever encountered on this website.
Bandwidth abuse!
But I will admit to having a pair of 32" jeans on a hanger at the far end of the closet. :)
This is a family site. ;)
I’ll just say I was working hard to convince a beautiful liberal that conservatives can...uh, well, forget it. :P
