6112.39.00.90 - Other (859)

This HTS code, 6112.39.00.90, covers men's or boys' swimwear, knitted or crocheted, that are made from textile materials other than those specifically enumerated in preceding subcategories. This classification is for swimwear where the primary textile component does not meet the specific silk content criteria found in sibling categories. Essentially, it acts as a residual classification for knitted or crocheted men's and boys' swimwear when other specific material compositions have not been identified.

The distinction from its sibling category, 6112.39.00.15, is crucial. That sibling specifically classifies swimwear containing 70 percent or more by weight of silk or silk waste. Therefore, 6112.39.00.90 is intended for all other men's and boys' knitted or crocheted swimwear made from various textile materials, excluding those predominantly composed of silk. This includes swimwear made from cotton, synthetic fibers like polyester or nylon, or blends where silk is not the dominant component.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories within this specific HTS code. Classification decisions at this level will rely on accurately identifying the primary textile material of the swimwear and confirming it does not meet the criteria for any more specific classifications within heading 6112. The "Other" designation signifies that all remaining eligible items not specifically accounted for elsewhere fall into this category.
