A loincloth, also known as a loin cloth or a breechcloth, was a type of undergarment, worn by various species to cover the loins. Loincloths were also worn by certain servants and slaves. Squibs and Rodians, particularly those of the Chekkoo clan, were known to wear loincloths. The breechcloths worn by Aruzan citizens were usually white, and platinum necklaces were sometimes used as an accessory.
Loincloths were also a type of living cloth worn by the Yuuzhan Vong, particularly the Shamed Ones. It automatically sealed itself to the flesh of the wearer.
