6103.43.15.50 - Men's (647)

This HTS category specifically covers shorts designed for men and boys that are knitted or crocheted and made from synthetic fibers. These items are distinct from other garments in the same chapter by their shorter length, typically ending above the knee, and their construction method. The material composition is critical, requiring the primary component to be synthetic fibers such as polyester, nylon, or acrylic.

The distinction from sibling categories lies primarily in the intended wearer. While the parent category at the 6103.43 level encompasses trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches, and shorts, this node isolates the "shorts" classification. Furthermore, within this "shorts" subcategory, further distinctions are made between men's and boys' garments.

Since this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification within this code relies on a thorough understanding of the definitions of "shorts," "knitted or crocheted," and "synthetic fibers" as applied within the HTS. Importers must ensure that the garments meet all these criteria to be correctly classified under HTS code 6103.43.15.50.
