4203.21.80.30 - Golf gloves

This category specifically classifies golf gloves designed for use during the sport of golf. These gloves are characterized by their construction, typically from leather or leather substitutes, and are engineered to provide grip, comfort, and protection to a golfer's hands while swinging a club. The primary function is to enhance performance and prevent blisters or calluses during gameplay.

While this category exists under the broader heading of gloves designed for sports, it is distinct from its sibling category, "Other" (HTS 4203.21.80.60). The differentiator lies in the specific intended use. Goods classified under 4203.21.80.30 are exclusively for golf, whereas the "Other" sibling category would encompass sporting gloves not specifically designed for golf, such as those for baseball, weightlifting, or cycling.

As this HTS code represents a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification is finalized at this level, focusing on the precise identification of golf gloves as distinct from other types of sporting gloves within the broader category of leather apparel and accessories.
