One of your son's sensory issues may be an aversion to certain fabrics, or to having anything too close to his skin. Not sure if you've tried having him touch various fabrics (I've heard 100% cotton is usually good) to see if there's anything that he'll be more accepting of?

My almost 5 year old son doesn't like to keep his clothes on either. He'll keep it on while we're out shopping or traveling but as soon as were indoors ( our house, or his grandparents) off come the clothes. But sometimes he won't strip he'll keep the clothes on and it's a hugh fight with him to get them off.. I don't really understand why they do this. I was told that it's a sensory issue that they have, kinda like a comfort issue.

My son wears clothes all the time, but he is extremely particular about what he will and will not where.  So, that is our struggle.

I can get my son to wera clothes at school and at the babysitters (most of the time) also at my sister's but after that the clothes are gone unless he is cold. I think it is just thing with clothes. I am hoping it is just a faze. I basically gave up trying to get him to keep his clothes on. Right now I working on the pull-up when he goes to sleep.

Welcome to the club.  My son strips down as soon as he gets home from school.  And to get him dressed I have to tell him we are going out.  He loves to take rides.
