6110.90.90.15 - Of silk (846)

This HTS category, 6110.90.90.15, specifically classifies sweaters for men or boys that are made of silk. This classification falls under the broader heading of "Sweaters, pullovers, sweatshirts, waistcoats (vests) and similar articles, knitted or crocheted: Of other textile materials: Other." The inclusion of "Of silk" as a descriptive element is a key differentiator for items classified under this code.

It is crucial to distinguish this category from its siblings. For instance, HTS 6110.90.90.23, also under the "Other" subcategory for men's or boys' sweaters made from textile materials other than silk or man-made fibers, would cover garments made from materials such as cotton, wool, or linen blends. Therefore, the defining characteristic for 6110.90.90.15 is the exclusive use of silk as the primary textile material in its construction.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories within 6110.90.90.15. This means that any knitted or crocheted sweater, pullover, sweatshirt, or waistcoat specifically for men or boys, and predominantly or exclusively composed of silk, will be classified under this code. When classifying, confirm that the garment's construction and material composition align directly with the "Of silk" designation, ensuring accurate import and export declarations.
