'clothes' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'tolerates being without right' is the wordplay.
'tolerates being' becomes 'ens' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'without' indicates putting letters inside ('without' can be similar in meaning to 'outside').
'right' becomes 'due' (due is a kind of right).
'ens' enclosing 'due' is 'ENDUES'.
