6115.99.19.10 - Containing 23 percent or more by weight of wool or fine animal hair (432)

This HTS classification, 6115.99.19.10, specifically covers knitted or crocheted hosiery, such as panty hose, tights, stockings, socks, and footwear without applied soles, that are not elsewhere specified within the broader categories of artificial fibers. The defining characteristic of this particular sub-classification is that the items must contain 23 percent or more by weight of wool or fine animal hair. This criterion is crucial for differentiating these goods from other hosiery made from different fiber compositions.

At this level, the key distinction lies in the material composition. While sibling categories such as 6115.99.19.20 "Other" would encompass knitted or crocheted hosiery of artificial fibers that do not meet the specific wool or fine animal hair content requirement, this code is reserved for those meeting or exceeding the 23% threshold. Therefore, a proper classification relies on a precise determination of the fiber weight percentage.

As this node is a leaf node within the HTS database, there are no further subcategories to explore. Classification terminates at this point, requiring that any knitted or crocheted hosiery falling under the broader description of "Other of artificial fibers" and containing 23 percent or more by weight of wool or fine animal hair be classified under this specific code. Practical application involves verifying the declared fiber content against the import documentation.
