As children, many of us had a favorite outfit that we wanted to wear all the time. For me, it was my Bart Simpson t-shirt made from back when his shirt was still blue and he actually said, "Don't have a cow, man!"
Long after this shirt started to break down, I would still do my best to convince my parents that it was still perfectly good. I'm not sure how I managed this, but I was able to protect it from the garbage heap and I've still got it in a drawer to this day. Still, I finally retired it at a costume party celebrating '90s nostalgia, which seemed like a fitting end to its magical journey.
Yet it appears I'm not the only one with a sentimental attachment to something that has long run its course. It seems some others also wear the threadbare state of their things as a badge of honor and were nice enough to share these objects on the internet for our collective fascination.
And so, we celebrate these 10 items who kept on truckin' in the face of all our better judgment.
