The quality of the clothing you are purchasing will make a difference in how long your clothing item will last.  It is best to buy the best quality you can afford at the time you are shopping. 

If you add up the cost of the items in your closet it would surprise you at the total amount you have spent on clothing, accessories and shoes. If something were to happen and you had to replace all of those items you would be amazed.

Here is how long you can expect your quality items to last:

          GARMENT                           Usual  Years

• shoes                                        3
• classic coat                              5
• classic raincoat                       5 to forever depending on your climate
• good leather belt                     forever
• wool, linen or cotton suit        5-10 years
• wool trousers                           5
• evening clothes                        5-20 years for classic styling
• boots                                          3-5

You can plan to spend less on items like swim suits that are damaged by the pool water chemicals. These have to be replaced almost every season if you are frequently in the water.

HAPPY SHOPPING!
