What if.... there was for example a few master smiths/tailors which have specialized in a certain thing, like a master armor smith, a master sword smith, a master tailor ect.. which were able to reforge and transfer the equipment stats for a price of 20% worth of the equipment. which would make the old equipment become just an ordinary thing with its durability penalties. and the new equipment like it was new, maybe even improve its durability if you managed to get some certain stuff(which shouldn't be limited but just a bit hard to get).
