6104.61.00 - Of wool or fine animal hair

This HTS category, 6104.61, encompasses women's or girls' trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches, and shorts that are knitted or crocheted and primarily constructed from wool or fine animal hair. These garments are designed for comfort and style, with the defining characteristic being the natural fibers used in their construction, such as sheep's wool, cashmere, or angora. The classification hinges on both the knitted or crocheted construction method and the specific textile material composition.

This category is distinguished from its siblings by its material content. While 6104.62 covers similar garments made of cotton, and 6104.63 deals with those made of synthetic fibers, 6104.61.00 exclusively covers items fabricated from wool or fine animal hair. HTS 6104.69 is reserved for garments made of other textile materials not specified in the preceding subheadings.

Within this classification, further distinctions are made at the 8-digit level to specify the type of garment. Subcategories exist for trousers and breeches (6104.61.00.10), shorts (6104.61.00.20), and bib and brace overalls (6104.61.00.30). These subdivisions allow for more granular reporting and statistical tracking of the various types of knitted or crocheted women's or girls' lower-body wear made from wool or fine animal hair.
