What would you say the phrase "they're old hat" means? Is there another "cliche" that means the same thing?

The cliche "they're old hat" means that something is 'old hat' - overfamiliar: boringly familiar or old-fashioned.

I would say the word cliche actually means a very similar thing to old hat.
