I have my great uncle's Lynch box call, it's more than 50 years old. Not sure exactly how old, really. Got Linch calls from 1969 that Mr. Linch gave me. Uh, 49 years old.

Not counting a gun, I have a jacket that is at least 20 years old. Don't use it that often any more but it's still in good shape and fits so I keep it.

1991 Browning twist-lok quiver on the bow. The mount bracket doubles as a bow hanger on my treestands. But I am pulling out my 1974 (+/- 1 yr) .222 Savage soon.

knife I bought when I was 16 years old. I am now 55. Still my go to knife. So 40 yr old piece of gear. and had to run home and ask Mom for $10 to buy it! lol!
And as I was getting ready to hit post, dawned on me. A 22 Remington rifle Dad bought me when I was 8. Still have it and a go to squirrel/rabbit rifle. 48 yrs old! dang. wife is right, I AM getting old!
PS - did you mean oldest item I got originally new and still use? If so, see above. If, otoh, you mean oldest piece period, I have a rifle and a shotgun that are 90 odd years old each. Win Mdl 12 16 ga (1926) and Rem Mdl 14 (1928)! And a bunch of '50s era guns

A pair of original Realtree camo "Polar Tuff" pants I got 30 years ago. They were too big then but I wore them. They still fit, amazingly. I only wear them when it's REALLY cold.
My wife replaced the zipper about 15 years ago. I still have the jacket too, but it's way too small.

I still use a welded treestand I bought in 1987 for bowhunting. About 97' I bought another stand that I still use for rifle hunting. Always kept in the shop when I'm not sitting in it.
Model 7600 pump.308 bought in the 90's
I bought an ATV to get to my hunting area, now half the fun of hunting is the ride in and out.
