History and Background of the .CLOTHING Domain

The .CLOTHING domain extension was introduced during ICANN's new generic top-level domain expansion and is generally associated with websites connected to its name and theme.

Over time, it has been used by brands, creators, and community projects that want a domain name that clearly signals a focus on clothing-related topics.

Why you might not choose .CLOTHING

Before choosing a .CLOTHING domain, think about domain length and how customers will remember it.

  • Length: The extension is longer, which can make full domain names less concise.
  • Brand flexibility: It may feel too specific if you plan to expand into other products.
  • User habits: Some visitors may still expect a .com address.

Because of these factors, Website.com currently focuses on proven, widely recognized extensions such as .COM, .NET, and .ORG. .CLOTHING domains are not currently available for registration through Website.com.
