    The jacket I’m currently wearing is over 15 years old. I’ve worn it around 40,000 hours for £40. I will be extremely upset when it dies. Already the zip is broken and the fabric is thin…

        That’s true, but then it wouldn’t be my jacket any more.

          Replace the zipper and it’ll be uniquely yours. Right now it’s the factory’s jacket, the same as thousands of others. Once you’ve started replacing parts it’ll be one-of-a-kind.
