  2. I’ve been coasting since moving to remote work when COVID hit. Just starting to get new clothes now.

    No regrets.

  3. I honestly find the idea of buying new clothes every year rather foreign. What exactly is happening to your clothes that you need to replace them that frequently ?

  4. I still have shirts from the 90s that still fit. Only reason I buy new clothes are typically when things are damaged.

    Granted I feel the clothing I purchase today doesn’t last anywhere near as long before as if they are made thinner with cheaper material.

  6. Challenge? I’m 27 and I still wear some clothes from high school. I wear my clothes until they literally fall apart

  7. Is… is not buying clothes for a year supposed to be some kind of challenge?

    Hold my beer.

  8. A year? Oh, wow the fashion industry is so out of touch.

    Try decades.

  11. I have 6 of the same exact black t-shirts that I’ve rotated for years…surely they can deal

  12. Lmao! I haven’t bought new clothes since before covid with the exception of a new hoodie.

  13. I feel like we should applaud even token efforts by shallow people to resist vapid consumerism… although they’d probably read that as validation.

  15. lol, I’ve had the same clothes for like a decade. black never goes out of style.

  17. I can’t even remember the last time I bought something that wasn’t second hand

  19. I’ve got a shirt in my closet that I got when my daughter was 4 or 5. She’s 17 now.

  20. I have warn the same wardrobe for the last six years. What do I win?

  21. I, like so many others replying to this post, haven’t changed my wardrobe in years, if not decades!

  22. Child’s play. I’ve survived a 10yr wardrobe freeze. Totally voluntary, of course /s

  23. ‘Survive’? My eyes couldn’t roll back into my head harder.
