I work in Tech but I dislike most tech products. They are not repairable, are spyware, abandonware, shiteware and overall not a win-win situation that it is supposed to be. To be away from screens, I got into woodworking. To make things to old-fashioned way. To be repairable, to be sustainable and mostly to be imperfect. And yes, the imperfections are not on-purpose. I am doing my best to buy the old 'Quality' stuff that wont break and restore them to working order.
With shoes I buy second-hand Leather, Goodyear welted shoes and I splurged on Darntough socks. My feet are so happy. Currently I am seeking the best jeans, and almost all cotton seems to the trick.
So not the most niche per se, but I like it.
I used to prefer cotton and linen when I lived in the southwest, but now in the northeast its almost deadly. After the switchover to synthetics I realized how short the lifespan on natural fibers was. The Blaklader X1900 work pants I have use cotton ripstop as a base layer and it wouldn't last more than 9 months without disintegrating, while the nylon parts looked brand new. Same with t-shirts, they'd start falling apart after 6 months or less sometimes. Probably the humid environment though.
Never knew. There is a right 'tool' for every job. I live in a rainy place.
