6114.90.05 - Of wool or fine animal hair

This HTS category, 6114.90.05, specifically covers knitted or crocheted garments crafted from wool or fine animal hair, excluding those explicitly classified elsewhere within heading 6114. The term "fine animal hair" generally refers to fibers such as cashmere, mohair, alpaca, angora, yak, vicuña, and camel hair, when they meet specific fineness criteria. These garments are typically designed for wear and encompass a broad range of apparel items not otherwise specified in more precise headings within Chapter 61.

At this level, the key distinction lies in the material composition. Sibling categories such as 6114.90.10 are reserved for garments made predominantly of silk or silk waste. The residual category, 6114.90.90, serves as a catch-all for knitted or crocheted garments made from other textile materials not falling into the specific categories of wool, fine animal hair, or silk. Therefore, correct classification under 6114.90.05 hinges on the definitive presence and weight percentage of wool or fine animal hair.

This category further subdivides to provide more granular classification for specific types of garments. Under "Tops," the subcategory 6114.90.05.50 details "Jumpers," indicating that specific types of pullovers or sweaters made from wool or fine animal hair are further delineated. The subsequent "Other" subcategory allows for the classification of knitted or crocheted garments made of wool or fine animal hair that do not fit the "Jumpers" designation, thus encompassing a wider array of apparel like cardigans, vests, and other tops.
