6112 1980
Overview
This HTS category, 6112.19, encompasses track suits that are knitted or crocheted and are made from textile materials other than cotton or synthetic fibers. These garments are designed for athletic activities or leisurewear and typically consist of a matching jacket and trousers. The key defining characteristic for classification under 6112.19 is the composition of the textile material used in their manufacture, specifically excluding cotton and synthetic fibers.
Unlike its sibling categories, 6112.11 which specifically covers track suits of cotton, and 6112.12 for those made of synthetic fibers, this sub-heading acts as a residual category for other material compositions. Therefore, when classifying a knitted or crocheted track suit, the primary consideration is identifying whether it is primarily composed of cotton, synthetic fibers, or another textile material.
The subdivisions within 6112.19 further refine the classification based on the specific "other" textile material. Subcategory 6112.19.10 is for track suits composed of artificial fibers. Category 6112.19.40 applies to track suits that contain 70 percent or more by weight of silk or silk waste. Finally, the residual category 6112.19.80 is for all other track suits not specifically covered by the preceding subcategories, such as those made from wool, linen, or blends where no single "other" fiber predominates to meet the 70% silk threshold.
