What kind of clothes do we wear in winter and summer?

Solution

Summer

Cotton clothes are woven such that they allow good air circulation, thus allowing the skin to breathe. It absorbs moisture from sweating and keeps the skin dry and cool. It resists dust and mites, preventing skin irritations and infections during summers.

Winter

Wool is manufactured by processing the hair of sheep or goat. The hairy skin of a sheep has two types of fibre, the coarse and fine, of which the latter is used to make wool. These fabrics trap a lot of air which is a poor conductor of heat, which acts as an insulator against the cold conditions.
