Where do people buy things that don't break? (hexbear.net)

Whenever I buy clothes they always end up getting holes quickly, I burn through socks fast, my bags keep breaking, my phones magically shit themselves and my chargers melt. I'm sick of everything being a wear part and I'm wondering where people get things that last.

Maxpedition makes classically sturdy and reliable bags and pouches. Has the tactical look, but you might find something that fits your style.

I went through a phase of only buying MILSPEC rated gear. My watch is nearly 20 years old and never changed the battery or set the time. It sets the time from the atomic clock every night and charges from solar. Casio G-Shock.

I like it - it’s a good mix of formal and casual with the metallic look. Plus it gives you an excuse to hang your arm out the window and enjoy the weather while driving, heh
