Usually the same reason why normal airborne dust sticks to clothing: By tiny amounts of static produced by the fabric.
Static electricity. The hairs have one charge the clothes have the opposite charge in places, the hairs are attracted and stick to those places

∙ 15y agoWell i have noticed if your hands are wet and you pet a shedding dog it sticks. but when your hands are dry i thinks its static electricity. i have also noticed if your dogs hair is blonde then it will stick to black pants. if your dogs hair is black it will stick to white pants. dogs shed at the end of fall and when its almost summer.
