6104.29.20.43 - Shorts (847) 🖩

This HTS classification, 6104.29.20.43, specifically covers women's or girls' knitted or crocheted shorts, crafted from textile materials other than those explicitly listed in preceding subcategories, and further refined to be made of silk. The inclusion of "other textile materials" signifies a broad range of fabrics beyond common categories, with the critical distinguishing factor being the silk content. The "(847)" designation in the description likely refers to a statistical suffix for tracking purposes within customs data.

The key differentiator for this category lies in its material composition. While its parent category encompasses a variety of knitted or crocheted garments for women and girls, and its sibling category 6104.29.20.41 pertains to trousers and breeches, this specific classification is exclusively for shorts made of silk. This emphasis on silk is paramount for accurate tariff assessment, as different silk blends or pure silk constructions may carry distinct duty rates.

As a leaf node in the HTS structure, this classification does not have further subdivisions. Therefore, the focus for classification within 6104.29.20.43 is on confirming that the garment is indeed a pair of shorts, is intended for women or girls, is knitted or crocheted, is not swimwear, and is made from silk. The absence of subcategories means that variations in style, length, or specific silk weaves are not separately enumerated at this level but are encompassed within this single silk shorts classification.
