Wear is a Verb

Wear. 動詞ですね。

We use wear with MANY things. I wear: a shirt, shoes, a hat, underwear. Wear earrings. Wear glasses or contacts. Wear a jacket. Wear a beard. And wear make-up. 

But wear (by itself) is not a noun meaning clothes/clothing. "I bought new wear," or "He has nice wear," is incorrect. You can add another noun and make "ski wear" or "summer wear." But otherwise, wear is a verb.

And clothes is pronounced "close." Not "closes."
