Overview
Chapter 61 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS) encompasses knitted or crocheted apparel and clothing accessories. Within this chapter, heading 6112 specifically covers track suits, ski-suits, and swimwear. This classification applies to sets of garments designed for athletic or recreational activities, or for water-based leisure, provided they are constructed from knitted or crocheted fabrics.
Unlike other headings in Chapter 61 that may cover general knitwear or specific types of apparel like shirts or trousers, 6112 is dedicated to these specialized, coordinated garments. For instance, while a general knit sweater might fall under a different heading, a sweater intended as part of a track suit ensemble would be classified here. It is crucial to differentiate these items from woven counterparts, which would be classified under Chapter 62.
Heading 6112 is further subdivided to provide greater specificity. These subcategories distinguish between track suits, ski-suits, and swimwear. Further distinctions within swimwear are made based on gender and age, such as men's or boys' swimwear versus women's or girls' swimwear, allowing for more precise tariff application and statistical tracking. The selection of the correct subcategory will depend on the garment's intended use, design, and the specific components included in a set.
