Think twice before tossing out those really comfy Allen Edmonds, Clarks, Keens, Gabors, Pikolinos, Kois, Chippewas, Durangos or whatever trusty footwear — flip-flops don't count — you've come to love.
The same goes for that weathered leather jacket with its well-worn patina, that purse that goes perfectly with, well, whatever you bought it for. Heck, even your dog's bed doesn't need to be kicked curbside just because it's ripped a bit.
