5210.29 - Other fabrics:

This HTS category, 5210.29, encompasses woven fabrics of cotton that meet specific compositional and weight criteria, and are classified as "Other fabrics" within the bleached designation. These fabrics contain less than 85 percent by weight of cotton, are primarily or solely mixed with man-made fibers, and weigh no more than 200 grams per square meter. The "Other fabrics" designation signifies that these materials do not fall under more specific weave structures at this level.

In contrast to its sibling category, 5210.21, which specifically details fabrics of a plain weave, 5210.29 is for all other bleached cotton-blend fabrics meeting the aforementioned compositional and weight thresholds that are not classified as plain weave. This distinction is crucial for accurate classification, as the weave structure is a key determinant.

The subcategories within 5210.29 further refine classification based on more specific weave types and other differentiating characteristics. 5210.29.10.00 distinguishes 3-thread or 4-thread twill, including cross twill, as a distinct group. Following this, 5210.29.20 identifies satin weave or twill weave fabrics that are not the 3-thread or 4-thread varieties. The remaining "Other" subcategories capture any bleached cotton-blend fabrics that do not fit into the aforementioned specific weave structures, allowing for comprehensive coverage.
