6115.29.40.00 - Containing 70 percent or more by weight of silk or silk waste

This HTS classification covers panty hose and tights that are knitted or crocheted and are specifically composed of 70 percent or more by weight of silk or silk waste. This material composition is the primary determinant for inclusion in this category, distinguishing it from other hosiery based on different fiber content.

At the same hierarchical level, sibling category 6115.29.80 encompasses "Other" panty hose and tights that do not meet the specific silk content requirement of this classification. Therefore, if the panty hose or tights are made of synthetic fibers, cotton, wool, or a blend where silk constitutes less than 70% by weight, they would likely fall under the sibling category.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories under 6115.29.40.00. Classification terminates here based on the definitive material requirement. Practical application involves verifying the fiber composition of the imported panty hose or tights through documentation or testing to confirm the dominance of silk or silk waste.
