Getting Dressed
- It is important to maintain a level of modesty at all times even at night. [1] Therefore, one should not reveal areas that are usually covered even when getting dressed, unless it is necessary. [2]
- One should cover one's head before getting dressed because the head is the most important part of the body and we want to show it the appropriate amount of respect. [3]
- A talmid chacham should make sure that his clothes are in accordance with his importance and to be neat and clean and make sure his clothing is not torn or stained. [4]
- One should be careful not to put on two articles of clothing at once. [5]
- One should not wear one's clothing inside-out, as this can also cause one to forget one's Torah. [6]
Shoes
- One should put on one's right shoe before one's left shoe [7] However, one should tie the left shoelaces before the right ones. [8] # Women should also tie the left shoe first. [9]
- One should remove one's left shoe before one's right shoe. [10]
