There is also a US clothing unit, the clo, equivalent to 0.155 R SI or 1.55 tog, described in ASTM D-1518. [7] A tog is 0.1⋅m 2 ⋅K/W. In other words, the thermal resistance in togs is equal to ten times the temperature difference (in °C) between the two surfaces of a material, when the flow of heat is equal to one watt per square metre.

Clothing insulation is the thermal insulation provided by clothing. [1] [2] Even if the main role of clothing is to protect from the cold, protective clothing also exists to protect from heat, such as for metallurgical workers or firemen. As regards thermal comfort, only the first case is considered.

It also developed the tog as an easy-to-follow measure of the thermal resistance of textiles, as an alternative to the SI unit of m 2 K/W. The BCRA merged with the British Rayon Research Association to form the Cotton, Silk, and Man-Made Fibres Research Association in 1961.
