6115.30.10.00 - Containing 70 percent or more by weight of silk or silk waste

This HTS category, 6115.30.10.00, specifically classifies women's full-length or knee-length hosiery that is knitted or crocheted, where the single yarn measures less than 67 decitex. The defining characteristic of this particular subcategory is that the hosiery must contain 70 percent or more by weight of silk or silk waste. This material requirement is crucial for accurate classification, distinguishing these silk-based items from other hosiery under the same broader headings.

The primary distinction from its sibling category, 6115.30.90 ("Other"), lies in the explicit material composition. While 6115.30.90 would encompass other women's full-length or knee-length hosiery of less than 67 decitex single yarn that does not meet the 70% silk or silk waste threshold, 6115.30.10.00 is reserved exclusively for those predominantly made of silk or its waste. This ensures that garments whose primary value and characteristic derive from silk are separately accounted for.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Classification under 6115.30.10.00 is final and determined solely by the stated criteria: knitted or crocheted, women's full-length or knee-length hosiery, yarn fineness below 67 decitex, and a silk or silk waste content of 70% or more by weight. Examples of products fitting this description would include fine silk stockings or tights specifically designed for women, adhering to these precise material and construction specifications.
