In the lesson L2.6, the word "Clothes" is pronounced /kloz/. However, the pronunciations I found online are /klowthz/ in British English, /klowdhz/ in Indian English and /klowthz/ in American English.

I would greatly appreciate it if this could be clarified.
Thanks!

The emphasis of the lecture here is on the 'z' sound. You may pronounce it the way it comes naturally to you.
