If ties count, I have 2 ties that my great-grandmother made for my grandfather in the 1940s. I inherited them in the 70s.

Otherwise, I've got a shirt my friend made in 1989 for his hardcore fanzine. It has a few little holes, but it still gets some me-time in the summer...
 
I have an (almost) long sleep baseball shirt that I bought in 1978 when my wife and I went to the old Yankee Stadium for the Yanks/Dodgers World Series.
 
I have a pair of "cutter pants" the chainsaw proof kind that my parents bought me for snowmobiling in 1986. Thats going on 25 years. I can't believe they still fit. They must have been big on me back then.
 
Mostly tour shirts I refuse to give up and wear every now and again for nostalgia's sake -- Jane's Addiction from 1990, REM from the Green tour, etc. Can't say I wear them "regularly" though.
 
  1. Blue Oxford cloth shirt I stole from my dad when I was 15. It's older than I am, circa 1982?
  2. Gopher basketball wool sweater my brother gave to the same father in 1985.
  3. Wool scarf acquired when I was 14, doesn't really count.
  4. Blue and grey Nike zipped sweatshirt. Acquired from brother, age unknown, 1985?
 
I still wear the t-shirt I wore OVER my football pads when I was in 7th grade. I also have my A-10 warthog t-shirt from an airshow I went to in about 3rd grade. My fiancee wears it now for a bedtime shirt. I gotta say she makes that t-shirt sexy as hell...
 
This thread is better with pictures!

This is pretty sad.... but probably socks and underwear.

MAYBE this pair of old-man jeans with flannel lining. They look hideous on me, but for working out in the cold they're great. And only a tad too tight in the waist. At least they don't fall down. I think I've had them since high school (which ended only 7.5 years ago).
 
got to be a pair of air Jordans I bought back in the 90's. still wear them once in a while
 
I have my blaze orange sweat jacket that still has my hunter's safety patch on it. If I date it back to the patch (the jacket being older than the patch) It is 24 years old.

It does not fit, has no sleeves or zipper but is a fond memory to see when opening up my hunting gear tote.
 
I wear grandpa's shirts to go fishing. The shirts are from the hospital he used to work for. He retired in the early 80's.

I also have a pair of snowmobile mittens that must seriously be 40 years old.
