It's funny how you get attached to old stuff. I have some old Icebreaker socks, stretched, faded, with a decent hole. They are beyond ready to be retired but realised they have been to both Mt Everest (the Tibetan base, not the top) and Antarctica. That's on top of numerous NZ walks/rides and daily around the house for about a decade. Thinking of framing them!

I think if you go to Everest in this lifetime, you have to keep one item that accompanied with you. That's just an unwritten rule. Socks become house slippers, that's completely normal. In a frame, less so, but if you have a place for them do it!
