A place to share practical, durable and quality made products that are made to last, with an emphasis on upcycled and sustainable products!
Guidelines:
Things that are well-made and durable (even if they won't last a lifetime) are A-Okay!
Unlike that other BIFL place, Home-made and DIY items are encouraged here, as long as some form of instruction is included in the body of the post.
Videos links are not allowed as post titles, but you may use them in a text post.
A limited amount of self-promotion is accepted, IF the item you are selling aligns with this criteria:
- The item must be made with sustainable or recycled materials.
- If electronic in some way, the item must be open-source.
- The item must be user-serviceable (if applicable).
- You cannot be a large corporation.
- The post must be clearly marked with a [Self Promotion] tag in your title.

Might not be the most environmentally friendly, but I can say from personal experience that these silver impregnated hiking shorts are both smell free and last about a decade.
Sorry is there a link here I'm not seeing on my app... Which brand shorts are they?
I didn't post a link. There are many brands that produce these kind of shorts. I have no idea what brand it was, but they hold up fine. Something Italian I think 🤷♂️
Ah okay thanks I'll do some searching
