6103.23.00.10 - Trousers, breeches and shorts (447)

This HTS category, 6103.23.00.10, specifically covers knitted or crocheted trousers, breeches, and shorts intended for men or boys. These garments fall under the broader classification of ensembles made from synthetic fibers, which themselves are part of the larger group of men's or boys' suits and related items that are knitted or crocheted. The key defining characteristic for inclusion here is the garment's primary function as legwear, encompassing items ranging from full-length trousers to shorter breeches and shorts.

It is crucial to distinguish this category from its siblings. While all share the context of men's or boys' knitted or crocheted apparel made from synthetic fibers, 6103.23.00.10 is exclusively for trousers, breeches, and shorts. Sibling categories cover other specific garments within this synthetic ensemble framework, such as garments falling under heading 6101 (which might include outerwear), jackets and blazers described in heading 6103, shirts, and sweaters. Items classified here are not outerwear, jackets, shirts, or sweaters, but rather distinct pieces of legwear.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subdivisions under 6103.23.00.10. Therefore, classification within this code relies on accurately identifying the garment as men's or boys' knitted or crocheted trousers, breeches, or shorts made from synthetic fibers, and ensuring it does not meet the specific descriptions of the adjacent sibling categories. For instance, a knitted garment intended for a man or boy that is clearly legwear and not a jacket, shirt, or sweater would fall under this specific tariff number.
