  I’m that way with leather goods. I don’t buy lo quality stuff cus I like things lasting a very long time. I don’t abuse what I own, but I very much enjoy seeing it wear in. The level of enjoyment I get from brushing an old pair of boots, admiring the wear marks on my wallet before oiling, or cleaning my jacket or belt is immense
context: This is really great. I’m a minimalist and don’t like having or owning a lot of stuff. Reading ur comment made me appreciate the few things I do have and use regularly. Thanks! >
  
  Yeah it doesn't bother me at all. I had a brand new Jeep for roughly two weeks before a piece of firewood hit the tailgate while loading wood. Husband is like "OMG !" ..  what ? It's fine. >
  
  Something about a perfectly spotless Jeep just rubs me the wrong way. Own those rock chips and pinstripes, it's a machine that's supposed to get dirty! >
  
  YESS!!!! i love when stuff looks used. so much prettier
