Longevity

I have been forced (by the lioness) to go through my wardrobe and thin out my coats and body warmers etc.To my suprise most of the survivors of this
cull have been some of my oldest coats, nearly all natural fibres, wools, cottons and ditto mixes with manmade fbres.
The expensive manmade breathable,moisture wicking,designed by experts,
with added designer panache, are almost all duff after being used for 2-3 years How do you find the life of similar garments?A pair of locally made high tech trekking boots was failed after an argument withburied barbed wire tore them open, my leather daisy roots are only scratched
