I have a few T-shirts that are way beyond their best but because I've had them so long they're so soft and feel like velvet. The prints on them are very worn and the black ones are grey on the bottom half and greyer at the top where I suppose the sun and/or sweat has got to them.
The thing is, I've had these shirts for years and they have sentimental value but there are holes under the armpits, there are fag burns in them, they've lost their shape and the collars are frayed. Yes, they're really old.
I still like to wear them but my missus hates them and says she wished I'd stop looking like a tramp and to be fair, I can see her point; when I don't wear them for a while I can see that they're tatty as hell and probably don't show me off in my best light but I love them and don't want to chuck them.
I thought about keeping them to do odd jobs in like fix my bike or changing the oil etc but really they're too good for that (her indoors would disagree).
So, do you have anything like this and what do you/would you do with them? I suppose I could just let go and bin them but I've had them so long and they have memories attached to them. I suspect I'm being a sad git but there you are.
