5210.39.80.20 - Oxford cloth (227) 🖩

This HTS category, 5210.39.80.20, specifically classifies Oxford cloth. Oxford cloth, in this context, refers to woven fabrics composed primarily of cotton but containing man-made fibers, with a cotton content by weight less than 85%. The fabric must also weigh no more than 200 grams per square meter. Furthermore, these fabrics are dyed and fall under the "other fabrics" designation at this level of detail, signifying they are not covered by more specific subheadings within the "dyed" category. The crucial distinguishing factor for this classification is the thread count, specified as being of number 69 or higher.

The primary distinction of this category from its sibling, 5210.39.80.90 ("Other"), lies in the thread count. While both fall under the umbrella of dyed woven cotton fabrics containing man-made fibers and not exceeding 200 g/m², this specific subheading requires a thread count of 69 or higher. The "Other" sibling would encompass fabrics meeting all other criteria but possessing a thread count lower than 69. This detailed differentiation highlights the importance of precise measurement and fiber composition in achieving accurate classification.

As this node is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Classification decisions at this point will rely on a meticulous evaluation of the fabric's weight, fiber composition, dyeing status, and importantly, its thread count to ensure it accurately aligns with the criteria of 5210.39.80.20, specifically Oxford cloth with a thread count of number 69 or higher.
