6112.19.10 - Of artificial fibers

This HTS category, 6112.19.10, specifically classifies knitted or crocheted tracksuits that are made from artificial fibers. It falls under the broader heading of tracksuits, ski-suits, and swimwear, and more precisely, within tracksuits constructed from "other textile materials." The defining characteristic of this subcategory is its composition: the garments must be predominantly or entirely made of artificial fibers, such as polyester, nylon, or acrylic.

To distinguish this category from its siblings, it's crucial to consider the material composition. While 6112.19.40 is reserved for tracksuits containing 70 percent or more by weight of silk or silk waste, and 6112.19.80 covers all other tracksuits not falling into the more specific categories, 6112.19.10 is exclusively for those crafted from man-made fibers. This ensures accurate duty assessment based on the origin of the textile material.

The subcategories within 6112.19.10 provide further delineation based on the type of garment that forms the tracksuit. These subdivisions, which may include entries for garments described in heading 6101 or 6102, shirts, and trousers, allow for a more granular classification of the specific components of the knitted or crocheted tracksuit. This detailed breakdown is essential for accurately identifying the complete set or individual pieces within the tracksuit ensemble.
