5212.23.60.10 - Mixed mainly or solely with wool or fine animal hair (220)

This HTS category, 5212.23.60.10, classifies other woven fabrics of cotton that weigh more than 200 g/m², are dyed, and are mixed mainly or solely with wool or fine animal hair. These are typically heavier-weight cotton fabrics where wool or fine animal hair fibers are intentionally incorporated into the weave, either as part of the warp, weft, or both, to achieve specific textile properties. The presence of wool or fine animal hair is a defining characteristic, differentiating these from fabrics composed solely of cotton or other fibers.

While the broader category encompasses "Other" woven cotton fabrics exceeding 200 g/m² and dyed, this specific subclassification hinges on the inclusion of wool or fine animal hair. Sibling categories at this level might include woven cotton fabrics with different fiber compositions or weighting criteria. The intention here is to isolate fabrics where the blended nature with wool or fine animal hair significantly influences the fabric's characteristics, such as warmth, drape, or texture, beyond what is achievable with cotton alone.

As a leaf node, there are no further subcategories under 5212.23.60.10. Therefore, classification at this level requires careful verification that the fabric meets all preceding criteria: being a woven fabric of cotton, weighing over 200 g/m², being dyed, and specifically containing wool or fine animal hair as the primary or sole admixture. Examples could include certain types of heavier suiting fabrics, upholstery materials, or outerwear textiles where the blend provides enhanced insulation or a distinct tactile feel.
