6109.90.10.49 - Other (638)

This HTS code, 6109.90.10.49, classifies "Other" garments that are knitted or crocheted, made of man-made fibers, and intended for men or boys, within the broader category of T-shirts, singlets, tank tops, and similar garments. The "Other" designation signifies that these items do not fall into more specific subcategories of men's or boys' garments made from man-made fibers within this heading. This typically includes items that are not explicitly T-shirts, tank tops, or singlets, but share their fundamental characteristics of being casual, upper-body garments.

Distinguishing this code from its siblings is crucial for accurate classification. For example, while 6109.90.10.47 covers thermal undershirts, this code encompasses all other types of knitted or crocheted men's or boys' garments of man-made fibers that do not fit into the thermal undershirt category or any other more precisely defined subcategories within the men's/boys' garment classification for this heading. The primary distinction lies in the specific function and design of the garment.

As this code represents a leaf node, there are no further subcategories under 6109.90.10.49. Therefore, classification at this level requires careful consideration of the garment's construction, material composition (specifically being man-made fibers), intended use, and whether it aligns with the general definition of a T-shirt, singlet, tank top, or a similar casual upper-body garment, while excluding items specifically classified elsewhere, such as thermal undershirts. Examples of items that might fall here include certain casual pullovers or sleeveless tops that do not meet the specific criteria of a tank top or singlet.
