6107.29.50.00 - Containing 70 percent or more by weight of silk or silk waste (751)

This HTS classification, 6107.29.50.00, specifically covers men's or boys' nightshirts and pajamas that are knitted or crocheted and are composed of "other textile materials." The critical defining characteristic for this subcategory is that these garments must contain 70 percent or more by weight of silk or silk waste. This designation ensures that garments with a high silk content are appropriately classified, recognizing the unique properties and value associated with silk textiles.

To distinguish this category from its siblings, it is important to note the precise material composition. Sibling category 6107.29.20.00 applies to nightshirts and pajamas made primarily of wool or fine animal hair. The "Other" category, 6107.29.90.00, would encompass garments made from any textile material not otherwise specified, including but not limited to cotton, synthetic fibers, or blends not meeting the 70% silk threshold. Therefore, the defining factor for 6107.29.50.00 is the predominant presence of silk.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories that subdivide this classification. The classification is complete at this level, with the primary criteria being the knitted or crocheted nature of the garment, its purpose as nightwear, and the 70% silk content by weight. This level of detail ensures accurate and consistent classification for all men's or boys' knitted or crocheted nightshirts and pajamas where silk is the predominant fiber.
