I believe the answer is:

clobber

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This clue might be a double definition.

'strike' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'clothes factory' is the second definition.
'clobber' can be an answer for 'clothes' (clobber can mean one's clothing). I am unsure of the 'factory' bit.

'in a' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for clobber that I've seen before include "stuff" , "Severely criticise" , "Whack" , "bash" , "beat-up" .)
