6110.90.90.46 - Women's or girls' (359)

This HTS category, 6110.90.90.46, specifically classifies knitted or crocheted vests designed for women or girls. These garments are distinct from sweaters, pullovers, sweatshirts, and similar articles, as their primary characteristic is to cover the torso without sleeves. The "other textile materials" designation indicates that these vests are not primarily composed of cotton, wool, or man-made fibers that would place them in a different subcategory.

The key differentiator of this category from its sibling, 6110.90.90.44, lies in the intended wearer. While 6110.90.90.44 covers men's or boys' vests of similar construction and material composition, this category is exclusively for articles made for females. The "Subject to cotton restraints" designation points to specific import regulations or quotas that may apply to these goods, necessitating careful monitoring by importers and exporters.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the focus for classification under 6110.90.90.46 is on confirming the garment is a knitted or crocheted vest, not primarily made of cotton, and intended for women or girls, while being mindful of any applicable cotton restraint provisions. Examples include knitted fashion vests, sleeveless knit tops worn as vests, or simple knit vests without closures, provided they meet the material and gender criteria.
