Reply to comment by ZenoofElia in Clothes - What are durable brands? by TheFledge534

Afaik there's no lifetime warranty in Europe and people still buy stuff from top end brands, so that can't be the reason.

Not sure what you're suggesting. Buying a high end bifl product in a country not covered under warranty still makes sense knowing that the company produces high quality stuff.

Provide an example please.

For clothing, for example Filson. Heck, even for Patagonia I don't think there are any concrete warranty conditions on their website.

For other stuff... e.g. Knipex comes to mind first. Any tool brand, really. Tool lifetime warranty seems pretty common in the US.
