Overview
This HTS classification pertains to woven fabrics of cotton that contain less than 85% cotton by weight, are mixed principally or solely with man-made fibers, and weigh no more than 200 g/m². Specifically, this category, 5210.49.40, encompasses such fabrics where the yarns are of different colors, and the fabric is classified as "other" within the broader group of "other fabrics."
The key distinguishing factor for this subcategory lies in the yarn count or fineness. It is distinct from its siblings 5210.49.60 and 5210.49.80, which cover fabrics made with yarns falling into different numerical ranges (43 to 68, and 69 or higher, respectively). This category, 5210.49.40, specifically covers fabrics with yarns numbering 42 or lower, indicating a coarser yarn construction.
Within this classification, further subdivisions exist to refine the classification based on weave type and specific applications. The subcategories include Oxford cloth (5210.49.40.10), known for its characteristic basketweave and typically used in shirting, Jacquard woven fabrics (5210.49.40.20) which feature intricate patterns woven directly into the fabric, and a residual "Other" category (5210.49.40.90) for all other fabrics meeting the primary criteria of this code.
