Overview
This HTS category, 5210.59.60, specifically covers printed woven cotton fabrics that are not primarily composed of cotton. The defining characteristic is that these fabrics contain less than 85% cotton by weight, with the predominant remaining fibers being man-made. Furthermore, these fabrics must weigh no more than 200 grams per square meter. This category is reserved for printed fabrics that fall within a specific range of textile "numbers" when categorized by their yarn count or similar metric, specifically those numbered 43 through 68.
To distinguish this category from its siblings, note that 5210.59.40 pertains to similar fabrics with yarn numbers of 42 or lower, while 5210.59.80 covers those with yarn numbers of 69 or higher. Therefore, 5210.59.60 acts as an intermediate classification based on the yarn count or numbering system of the fabric.
Within this category, two subcategories exist to further refine the classification. 5210.59.60.20 specifically identifies "Oxford cloth," a distinct type of weave. All other fabrics that meet the criteria of this parent category but are not Oxford cloth are classified under 5210.59.60.90 as "Other." This subdivision allows for precise identification and tracking of different fabric constructions within this specific printed, cotton-blend, mid-weight textile group.
