It is pronounced as klōz, klōthz or Klohth depending on where you live.

In India, we pronounce klōthz with the sound ‘th’ and the 'z' sound at the end.

What does your 'u' mean? In British English (RBP), the voicing changes the vowel:

clothes - /kləʊðz/

cloths - /klɒθs/
('Cloth' can be either countable or uncountable. It's often countable in compound words like facecloth or dishcloth.)
