Overview

This HTS classification, 6104.29.10.40, specifically identifies knitted or crocheted shorts for women or girls that are made from artificial fibers. These garments are distinct from other items within heading 6104, such as suits, ensembles, jackets, blazers, dresses, skirts, divided skirts, trousers, and bib and brace overalls, all of which are classified under different subheadings. This particular category is reserved solely for shorts, excluding swimwear.

The crucial factor for classification within this subheading is the material composition. The "Of artificial fibers" designation means these shorts are constructed from man-made cellulosic fibers (like rayon, modal, or lyocell) or synthetic fibers (like polyester, nylon, or acrylic). This distinguishes them from shorts made of natural fibers like cotton or wool, which would fall under different classifications.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification hinges on the precise interpretation of "shorts" and "artificial fibers." Practical classification will involve examining the garment's design and confirming its material content through fiber analysis or labeling to ensure it correctly aligns with the definition of knitted or crocheted shorts of artificial fibers for women or girls.
