Best bit of cycle clothing you have bought thats stood the test of time?

Just wondering what you have bought that have impressed you and has lasted? I bought a pair of Assos bib shorts 6 years ago and they are still going strong, seat cushioning is still amazing to this day. Also bought a Rapha jacket (on sale) that still looks brand new, all velcro, zips and material is great condition even…

Most dhb stuff has served me well - jerseys, arm warmers, leg warmers, winter gloves and socks.

My BBB Hydrofobic Thermo overshoes are an essential on cold spins and have lasted over 5 years.

But my Shimano soft shell winter jacket is my number one. It'll withstand most rain showers and keeps me warm on zero degree spins. When the rain gets heavy and persistent, I use my trusty Altura Pocket Rocket that keeps me dry but the zip on this is pretty crap.

i've a pair of shimano SPD shoes which were bought during the combined euro/punt period. to be fair, they sat unused for about five or six years at one point, but they are still very usable.

Still using Shimano SPD shoes bought in 2006.
