My 30 year old Teva sandals are still going strong
EDIT: Also my 25 year old DeWalt cordless drills. Original batteries and everything.
There's a lot of DeWalt stuff that will outlive you if you treat them right. I'm especially a fan of their ladders. The perfect mix of durability and weight.
How?! The tread wears off mine in a matter of months, and eventually something tears.
I would guess maybe they don’t build them like they used to?
I'm guessing that must be it. I've had to replace the velcro on mine but still going strong after almost 20 years
I finally replaced my Teva’s this year after they “only” lasted for 20 years. Choosing the color scheme for the straps on the new pair was surprisingly difficult, knowing that I’d be stuck with it for a few decades.
