How to get clothing above 90 percent?

[Goyschak_*****]

All citizens have access to at least one store with clothing.
The stocks never run out.

But for some reason the average satisfaction level for clothing never goes beyond 90 %.

I am playing on the hardest settings possible, if that might help your answers.

I might add that there are never any cues in front of the shops.

Unemployed %?

How many workers you have and how many doesnt work? 90% clothing need isnt a problem but its a mystery..

I think this is specific to great unsatisfied citizens reaction settings. I have 92% max and never any more. No matter if this is domestic production or dollar/rubles import.
So don't worry.

Thank you for answer. I was wondering along the same line.

About 40,000 workers. Rate of unemployment is 0%.

Everybody works, give them some free time :)

Try making it colder outside and see if that influences it at all.

I play on medium citizens reaction and the clothing quality also stays around 90% regardless of the season. That does not seem to influence the happiness in any meaningful way though.

Aside from drop in happiness for not getting clothes in a shop It only effect people if the value is below 50%. And even if it is below 50% the health drop during winter is minimal. On hard citizen reaction you get more escapes because of not providing clothes then people dying during winter.
Takes about a calendar year to go from 90% to below 50%. Once below 50% the people do no other free time activity then searching for clothes (other then food and hospital).

Thank you very much for all your answers.

Can you explain this thought line please?
How does making it colder improve the quality of the clothing?
Thanks.

Sure.

I had a theory that citizens might want/need better clothes (i.e. a higher clothing quality) in cold times and not care so much in summer when it is more hospitable. In real life, torn jeans and socks/shoes with holes bother people in winter much more than summer, so I wanted to see if this could explain why citizens didn't care about clothing quality until it got around 50% (most people complaining about it all seem to post conditions in summer).
