Clothing

Clothing is defined, in its broadest sense, as coverings for the torso and limbs also as coverings for the hands (gloves), feet (socks, shoes, sandals, and boots) and head (hats, caps). Humans normally wear clothing, which is also known as dress, garments, attire, or apparel. People put on clothing for useful as well as for social reasons. Clothing protects the susceptible naked human body from the extremes of weather, additional features of our environment, and for security reasons. Every article of clothing as well carries a cultural and social sense. Human beings are the only mammals identified to wear clothing, with the exemption of human pets clothed by their owners.
