6101.30.15.00 - Containing 23 percent or more by weight of wool or fine animal hair (434) 🖩

This classification covers knitted or crocheted overcoats, carcoats, capes, cloaks, anoraks (including ski-jackets), windbreakers, and similar articles designed for men or boys. The defining characteristic of this specific subcategory is that these garments must contain 23 percent or more by weight of wool or fine animal hair. This material content is crucial for differentiating these items from those with a lower percentage of wool or fine animal hair, or those made predominantly from other fibers.

This category specifically addresses articles that are knitted or crocheted, distinguishing them from woven garments that would fall under Chapter 62. Within the broader heading 6101, this particular classification is nested under "Of man-made fibers," and then "Other," indicating it encompasses knitted or crocheted outerwear for men or boys that are not specifically classified elsewhere within the "Of man-made fibers" group, provided they meet the wool or fine animal hair content requirement.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subdivisions. Therefore, the classification hinges entirely on the material composition. For practical classification, importers and exporters should carefully consider the bill of materials for each garment. Items that meet the 23 percent or more by weight threshold for wool or fine animal hair, and are otherwise described as men's or boys' knitted or crocheted outerwear, will be classified here. It is important to note that the term "fine animal hair" typically refers to fibers such as cashmere, mohair, angora, vicuña, alpaca, llama, or guanaco.
