6104.69.40.20 - Trousers, breeches and shorts (748)

This classification pertains to women's or girls' trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches, and shorts that are knitted or crocheted and made from textile materials other than cotton, man-made fibers, or wool. Specifically, this category covers items containing 70 percent or more by weight of silk or silk waste. These garments are intended for outerwear and are not swimwear.

The distinction between this category and its sibling lies in the primary textile composition. While both fall under "Trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches and shorts" of "other textile materials," this node specifically focuses on silk content. The sibling category, 6104.69.40.10, is exclusively for bib and brace overalls, indicating a difference in garment type at the same material and product level.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS database, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification within this code requires a definitive confirmation of the garment type (trousers, breeches, or shorts) and the precise silk content by weight, ensuring it meets the 70 percent threshold. Examples include knitted silk trousers, silk breeches, and knitted silk shorts designed for women and girls.
