Even if it's not expensive, Is there a high quality item every serious enthusiast owns?

Or maybe it's a highly prized holy grail item you'd give your right arm for.

Is there something you've had an eye on for a while and you're just waiting for an excuse to treat yourself?

Boots. Good quality boots. Nothing worse than being on a 10+ mile trail and realizing your boots are digging into all the wrong places.

My hiking boots had their 24th birthday last month. Still as comfortable as they were when newly broken in. I have easily covered 20,000 km in them.

I've had mine for 5 years. They're close to not being waterproof anymore but they got good soles so I'm holding on :D
