I tried it, in a local script. But other players can't see it. here's the script btw

01local shirt = Instance.new("Part")
02shirt.Parent = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.HumanoidRootPart
03shirt.Anchored = true
04shirt.CanCollide = false
05shirt.Size = Vector3.new(2.32, 2.32, 1.32)
06shirt.Transparency = 0.35
07shirt.Name = "Anti-Skid Shirt"
08shirt.TopSurface = "Smooth"
09shirt.RightSurface = "Smooth"
10shirt.LeftSurface = "Smooth"
11shirt.BottomSurface = "Smooth"
12 
13game:service'RunService'.Heartbeat:Connect(function()
14    shirt.CFrame = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame
15end)

I even tried to set the parent to workspace, but other player still can't see it. If there's any way to do it. Please teach me how. I accept answers!

There's a difference between using LocalScript and Script. If you want other people see the new part created, you should make in from the server. You can use service Players and use the event called PlayerAdded for when a player joins and from there use the event CharacterAdded from the player object for when the character is added and it works if you want to do something every time the character loads. There's a example to help u understand

01--This needs to be done in a server script, not a localscript
02 
03local Players = game:GetService("Players") --Here we get the service Players to use its events
04 
05 
06--Here we connect the event for when a player joins. The function that we connected
07--Receives one argument that we can call whatever we want, that argument corresponds to the player that joined
08Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)
09 
10    --Next we do is connect the event CharacterAdded from the PlayerObject
11    --This events fires every time the player resets or dies.
12    --We connected it to a function that receives one argument, in this case the Character
13    Player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(Character)
14        --Here we can Instance the part and do whatever we want with the character
15 
16        local shirt = Instance.new("Part")
17 
18        --Here's your code, in this case we need to replace this, since we already have the Character.
19        --shirt.Parent = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.HumanoidRootPart
20 
21        shirt.Parent = Character.HumanoidRootPart
22 
23        --shirt.Anchored = true
24 
25        shirt.CanCollide = false
26        shirt.Size = Vector3.new(2.32, 2.32, 1.32)
27        shirt.Transparency = 0.35
28        shirt.Name = "Anti-Skid Shirt"
29        shirt.TopSurface = "Smooth"
30        shirt.RightSurface = "Smooth"
31        shirt.LeftSurface = "Smooth"
32        shirt.BottomSurface = "Smooth"
33 
34        --[[game:service'RunService'.Heartbeat:Connect(function()
35            shirt.CFrame = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame
36        end)
37        This piece of code can be improved, you can weld the part to the HumanoidRootPart instead of changing the CFrame every frame
38        We'll use WeldConstraint, the part that we created need to be unanchored, that's why i didn't anchor it
39        ]]
40 
41        shirt.CFrame = Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame --We need to move the part to the HumanoidRootPart CFrame so it stays in that place
42 
43        local WeldConstraint = Instance.new("WeldConstraint", shirt)
44        WeldConstraint.Part0 = shirt
45        WeldConstraint.Part1 = Character.HumanoidRootPart
