6112.20.10 - Of man-made fibers

This HTS category, 6112.20.10, specifically classifies ski-suits that are knitted or crocheted and are constructed from man-made fibers. This detailed classification is crucial for identifying imported or exported ski-suits based on their material composition. The scope encompasses complete ski ensembles designed for winter sports, including jackets and trousers, provided they meet the criteria of being made from synthetic or artificial fibers.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling, 6112.20.20 ("Other"), hinges entirely on the fiber content. While 6112.20.10 is exclusively for man-made fibers, the "Other" category would encompass ski-suits made from natural fibers such as wool or cotton, or blends where natural fibers predominate. Therefore, the material of the garment is the primary determinant for selecting the correct classification at this level.

The subcategories under this heading further refine the classification by detailing specific components of ski-suits. These subdivisions allow for the precise identification of individual pieces like anoraks (including ski-jackets), windbreakers, padded sleeveless jackets, trousers and breeches, or other articles not fitting into the aforementioned descriptions. This hierarchical structure ensures accurate tariff application based on the garment type and its intended use as part of a ski ensemble.
