6103.29.20.44 - Trousers and breeches (847)

This HTS category, 6103.29.20.44, specifically classifies knitted or crocheted trousers and breeches for men or boys, when they are not part of an ensemble and are made from textile materials other than those specified in preceding subheadings. This designation covers garments primarily intended for lower body wear, distinguishing them from shorts which are classified under sibling category 6103.29.20.48. The key defining factors for inclusion here are the garment's design as trousers or breeches, its knitted or crocheted construction, and its intended use for men or boys.

The scope of this classification emphasizes full-length leg coverings or those extending to just below the knee, designed with a waistband and closures typical of trousers or breeches. It excludes garments that are primarily characterized as shorts, which typically cover the leg from the waist to above the knee. The "other textile materials" aspect signifies that the fabric composition is not limited to cotton, synthetic fibers, or artificial fibers, as might be detailed in more specific prior subheadings, but rather encompasses a broader range of knitted or crocheted textiles meeting the general requirements of Chapter 61.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subdivisions within 6103.29.20.44. Therefore, classification into this specific code relies on fulfilling all criteria of the preceding hierarchical levels and differentiating from immediate siblings. Importers and exporters should carefully consider the garment's design and purpose to ensure accurate classification and avoid misidentification with shorts or other types of legwear.
