Default hose clamps - need replacement or not

I'm changing out my coolant hoses, due to small leaks on the ones that attach to the oil cooler. Decided to do all hoses at the same time.
Do I need to change the clamps out or should they still be good. (Bought the hoses at ECS but did not find clamps at the site.)

Thanks.

Once you get all the clamps off id take them to a local auto parts store and get new ones. they are inexpensive but usually wont break but it will add to a clean look and always one less thing that can go wrong
