Good point!
Pople often are not aware how things detorieate when something serious happens, especially in prolonged period of time.
We forget that things like getting new clothes become not possible, and repairing it is completely on us.
One more point here is that when SHTF everything is harder and gets more stress, that include clothing.
Clothes that usually lasts for month gets damaged in few weeks because you use it a lot in hard everyday work.
