6103.42.10.50 - Men's (347)

This HTS classification, HTS Code 6103.42.10.50, specifically pertains to men's shorts that are knitted or crocheted and predominantly made of cotton. These garments are designed for casual wear and are distinct from trousers, breeches, or swimwear, even if they share similar materials or construction methods. The key identifiers for this category are the intended wearer (men), the garment type (shorts), the manufacturing method (knitted or crocheted), and the primary textile fiber (cotton).

At this level of detail, this category distinguishes itself from its sibling category, "Boys':", which would cover similar shorts intended for younger males. The classification relies on distinguishing between adult men's and juvenile boys' apparel. As a leaf node, this specific HTS code represents the most granular level of classification for these particular goods, and therefore does not have further subcategories. Classification under this code necessitates adherence to the specific fiber content rules and end-use definitions for men's cotton shorts within Chapter 61 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule.
