'''Clothing''' is material made out of [[cloth]] or [[leather]] which is worn by sentient humanoid creatures to protect them from the elements.  Articles of clothing are similar in concept to [[armor]] and distinguished only by the fact that they do not provide significant protection against melee attacks; clothing is intended for comfort, not combat.
'''Clothing''' is items made out of [[cloth]] or [[leather]] which is worn by sentient [[humanoid]] [[creatures]] to protect them from the elements, from damage, and to cover themselves.  Articles of clothing can work similar in concept to [[armor]], but distinguished by the fact that they are ''owned'' by your dwarves and provide significantly less protection against attacks.
 
  
Clothes are stored as finished goods, and may be stored in [[bin]]s.

[[Human]]s, [[dwarves]], and [[elf|elves]] do not distinguish between articles of clothing with regards to gender, so it is common to see females wearing tunics and trousers and males wearing dresses and skirts.  One could call Dwarf Fortress a paragon of gender equality.

== Size does matter ==
Clothing and armor marked as "'''large'''" can not be made or worn by dwarves*, but will still be offered by human and elven [[caravan]]s. "'''Small'''" articles of clothing and armor usually come from killed [[kobold]]s and are also unusable. Items labeled as "'''narrow'''" come from [[goblin]]s and can't be made or worn either.  However, all of these can be sold to caravans for a nice price. Note that they will not count toward [[created wealth]] (or [[exported wealth]]) unless first [[decorate]]d.

:''(* with one exception: Items made from leather from [[large rat]]s will appear as "large rat leather ______".  Human-sized gloves made from large rat leather would be "large large rat leather gloves."  There are no "rats" that provide leather, so while confusing, this is definitive.)''

Some articles of clothing, when made at a [[clothier's shop]] or [[leather works]], will always produce pairs. Specifically, all handwear and footwear will be produced in pairs: each job tasked at such a workshop will make two out of a single piece of [[cloth]] or [[leather]], one for each limb.
