For socks I was introduced to Feetures and stand by them 100%. I can't speak for life yet, but I've had them over a year and they still feel like new. I've also never had a sock that fit my foot properly until I got Feetures.

Baggallini bags are virtually indestructible in my experience. I have a tote and a purse that I've used daily for 5 years, and they both look exactly like they did the day I bought them.

Shoulda called it Bagliacci.

-Good year welt leather boots in general last a very long time. I have a pair of chippewa boots that have lasted me since 2016 and they're still good. Haven't needed to resole them, they're very comfortable. I've worn them maybe 20-30% of the time(I let them rest at least a day between wears). -Straight razors and DE razors last a very long time, and they can both be significantly cheaper than regular disposable razors and electric shavers. -PIAA silicone windshield wipers (I think many silicone based wipers in general) are as BIFL as can be for windshield wipers. I think I have the same pair on my car from 2016.

GoRuck backpacks. I bought mine a decade ago and it still has impeccable quality.

Unfortunately they've outsourced to Vietnam. I can attest I have several USA made go ruck packs ... and they do still sell a few like that. But they've mostly outsourced; YMMV.

The Body Buffer by Manscaped. I don’t like any of their other stuff but my goodness that scrubber is legit. Easy to clean, doesn’t harbor bacteria, easy to grip, very durable, and it creates a nice lather

Mission workshop bags. I love mine, it looks as good today as when I got it.

[–] corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

I think they were made on contract, but I got a pair of hiking/work boots almost 35 years ago and aside from the slightest rash on the toe-caps they look perfect. If I knew the brand I'd buy shoes and belts all day.

It's American Eagle for me. Their pants have lasted me for longer than any other brand that I've worn regularly. Also, I don't have to adjust them because they just fit.
