6110.90.90.79 - Knit to shape articles described in statistical note 6 to this chapter (638)

This HTS category, 6110.90.90.79, specifically classifies knit-to-shape articles falling under statistical note 6 of Chapter 61. These are garments similar to sweaters, pullovers, sweatshirts, and waistcoats that are constructed by knitting the garment directly into its final shape, rather than being cut and sewn from larger pieces of fabric. The "other textile materials" designation in the parent category signifies that these articles are not primarily made of cotton, man-made fibers, or wool, but rather from a blend or other textile fibers not otherwise specified.

This specific sub-classification, "Subject to man-made fiber restraints: Men's or boys': Other," differentiates it from its sibling category, 6110.90.90.80, which also falls under "Other: Other" for knit-to-shape articles of other textile materials. The key distinction lies in the application of specific man-made fiber restraints. While both might be made from "other textile materials," 6110.90.90.79 is subject to particular import quotas or limitations related to man-made fibers intended for men's or boys' garments, whereas its sibling is not. The "Other" at this final level indicates it does not fit into any more granular subdivisions within the man-made fiber restrained categories for men's or boys' wear.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the focus for classification within 6110.90.90.79 is on confirming that the article is indeed knit-to-shape, made from textile materials other than the primary ones, is intended for men or boys, and importantly, is subject to the specific man-made fiber restraint regulations applicable to this code. Importers must carefully consult the relevant statistical notes and trade agreements to determine if a particular import is covered by these restraints.
