There’s nothing quite like the panic that can seize a person when they realize an item they’ve loved unconditionally and well for many years is beginning to show signs of ending its life.
It’s wearing out, wearing thin, and soon it will be time to replace it – but how? With what? How will we go on?
If you’re the sort of person who worries about such things, you’ll likely find solace in Reddit’s Well Worn page – where people display the perfect replacements they’ve found for some of their most well-worn, well-loved things.
12. Why change a good thing?
You find favorite shoes and you wear them out.
11. Two years in with a pair of work gloves.
That’s a hardworking person right there.
10. One year in work boots.
That’s a hard-working person right there.
9. When you find a good one you stick with it.
You never know if another sort will do.
8. Hey, there are words on it!
Who knew?
7. I mean, ew.
Not judging. Just going to check my own now.
6. Every day use for a year.
Working in a restaurant kitchen is no joke.
5. Someone has spent a lot of time in the garden.
Those plants are going to miss you.
4. Were those other ones white?
I need to know.
3. Hard to believe.
I wish they’d said how long they’d had the old one.
2. Six months on the head of a crime scene cleaner.
I would like to buy this person a drink and hear their stories.
1. Man, what was holding that shoelace together?
A prayer?
These pictures are just so satisfying, don’t you think?
