I've had a double Ventile Jacket for 35 years plus. Mine was from Hllltrek in Aboyne. I had it refurbished at 35 years, just the cuffs and the edge of flap over the zip, and the pocket flaps, all wear points and reasonable after that time.
I wash it and reproof once a year with Nikwax TEch Wash and TxDirect.
I have several other jackets of course, but wear this one most often for mixed outdoor stuff.
