Line 624:

The most common traditional Chlouvānem clothing is that one native of the Lāmiejāya plain, which the Chlouvānem spread alongside their culture in all of the equatorial and tropical areas of the Inquisition. Probably the most famous clothing pieces are the ''jånirāh'' for women and the ''glaɂa'' for men. The ''jånirāh'' is basically a long strip of cloth, usually about five or six meters long, which is wrapped around the waist and draped over the shoulder; the ''helajyā'' is a blouse usually worn together with the ''jånirāh'', underneath it to cover the breasts, but it is sometimes used as a dress on its own.<br/> Men's ''glaɂa'' is a large strip of cloth tied around the waist and covering the legs; many workers do not wear any top, but a ''pajlāka'' - a large cloth, a loose shirt/mantle, unisex, worn top-down from the head and arms, is often worn together with ''glaɂai''. Barechestedness, however, both for men and women, is not particularly bad manners in Chlouvānem society, especially in the southern regions closer to the Equator.<br/>High monks of a few ascetic monastic orders do not wear clothes at all.

Other typical clothing apparel include the ''maghātam'', an unisex piece of leg clothing closer to (American) pants, but more loose — and the ''dhūbas'', a neckless shirt, often also without sleeves, which is somewhat usual clothing for women but the most usual formal clothing for men. The ''måših'' is a skirt similar to the ''~~glaʔa~~'', but less loose and often closer to a pencil skirt, and is worn by both women and men; women in the regions with higher humidity often wear it along with a ''maulinaca'' - a bandeau bra.

Traditional Chlouvānem footwear is not tied, but is slipped on and off instead, as it helps getting air to the feet in humid climate conditions and also because in Chlouvānem everyday life there are many occasions where it is mandatory to remove shoes. The ''ryåṣa'' are probably the most common footwear - wooden sandals, often high, with a thong for the foot; the ''vārṇaigi'' have a similar concept but they're made of straw only and are tied to the lower part of the leg - they are usually more common among certain types of people such as most Inquisitors, all monks, most strict religious laypeople, and among most professors in schools and universities. Many people, however, go barefoot (''tanetane'').
