>>2374944The current accepted time-to-wear on most outer layer clothing (think parkas, sweaters etc.) is 10 years and that's what I've been basing my purchases on for some years now. Take your item and think of how many times in a year you're going to wear it (approximately). Divide the cost with that and you'll get how much you're spending each day wearing it. If the cost is too high, buy something else.
Personally I say you can easily wear a good hoodie like 200 days a year (what? I live in Finland, it gets cold). My current favorite hoodie I've had for 5 years, bought it for 28€. That's 0,028€/day for wearing a comfortable, good looking, warm piece of clothing.
Or my outdoor jacket, it was 329€ (on sale) 2 years ago. I use it every time I go hiking/camping, it's absolutely raintight but breathable af, and in the last 2 years I've been /out/ for 56 days. That's ~5,9€/day for something that's kept me warm, dry and happy. Entirely worth it already, and I'll be using it for years to come.
