Overview
This HTS category, 6102.30, specifically classifies women's or girls' overcoats, carcoats, capes, cloaks, anoraks (including ski-jackets), windbreakers, and similar outer garments, knitted or crocheted, that are primarily constructed from man-made fibers. These garments are designed for warmth, protection from the elements, and fashion, serving as outer layers for casual or active wear. The key differentiator for this classification is the primary textile material used in their construction.
Distinguishing this category from its siblings, 6102.10.00.00 covers garments of wool or fine animal hair, while 6102.20.00 pertains to those made of cotton. This category, 6102.30, therefore encompasses all knitted or crocheted women's or girls' outerwear that does not fall under wool, fine animal hair, or cotton as the dominant fiber. The broad term "man-made fibers" includes synthetic materials such as polyester, nylon, acrylic, and rayon, as well as regenerated cellulosic fibers.
The subcategories within 6102.30 further refine the classification based on specific material composition or treatments. The subcategory for "Containing 25 percent or more by weight of leather" addresses garments where leather is a significant component, indicating a blended construction. The "Other" category serves as a residual for knitted or crocheted outerwear of man-made fibers that do not meet the specific criteria of the preceding subcategories.
