Clothing (also called clothes and attire) is fiber and textile material worn on the body.

The wearing of clothing is mostly restricted to human beings and is a feature of nearly all human societies.

The amount and type of clothing worn depends on body type, social, and geographic considerations.

Some clothing types can be gender-specific.

A textile or cloth is a flexible material consisting of a network of natural or artificial fibres (yarn or thread).

Yarn is produced by spinning raw fibres of wool, flax, cotton, hemp, or other material to produce long strands.

Textiles are formed by weaving, knitting, crocheting, knotting, or felting.

Picea sitchensis, the Sitka spruce, is a large, coniferous, evergreen tree growing to almost 100 m (330 ft) tall, and with a trunk diameter at breast height that can exceed 5 m (16 ft) (see List of superlative trees).

It is by far the largest species of spruce and the fifth-largest conifer in the world (behind giant sequoia, coast redwood, kauri, and western redcedar); and the third-tallest conifer species (after coast redwood and coast Douglas-fir).

The Sitka spruce is one of the few species documented to reach 91 m (299 ft) in height.

Its name is derived from the community of Sitka, Alaska.
