why dont things last

[Sags_Deer]

I have my muck wellies for 3 years they now have a hole in. Now my muck riding boots have had for 2 years have a split in them, is it me or dont things last long these days. Im thinking of repairing the whole with a puncture repair kit anyone ever done this before.

I think 2 or three years for some boots which are used in all weathers and all conditions is pretty good!

Yeah agree with HH, none of my yard stuff lasts. Go trough pairs of trainers, boots, even my leather boots dont last very long. I have used a puncture repair kit for a rug, which i needed to fix that night! Seemed to do the job, but had it resewn the next week so didnt really find out. Try it, have a go!!

Things don't last because companies get better turnover if you keep buying items regularly

Trouble is we all want cheap goods that last for years, but this really isn't very healthy from a Company point of view.
