In addition to the regular clothing that other men wear, Orthodox Jewish men generally wear a kipa ("yarmulke" in Yiddish; a small, round skullcap) on their heads and four-cornered fringed garments colloquially referred to as tzitzit (the word "tzitzit" in Hebrew actually refers to the fringes) under (or over, depending on personal preference) their shirts.

Most Orthodox Jewish men wear a kippah or Yarmulke on their heads and many also wear a tallit katan (which means little tallit) under their shirts, with the tzitzit (fringes) hanging out to some extent.
