6116 - Gloves, mittens and mitts, knitted or crocheted:

Sub-classifications

Commodity Code
Description

Overview

This HTS category encompasses gloves, mittens, and mitts that are specifically manufactured through knitting or crocheting processes. This includes a wide range of handwear intended for protection, warmth, or fashion, regardless of whether they are made with natural or synthetic yarns, provided the construction method is knitted or crocheted.

Distinct from sibling categories at the Section XI level, which cover a vast array of textile and apparel items, this category is solely focused on hand-covering accessories. For example, it would not include woven gloves (classified elsewhere), or non-apparel knitted items such as dishcloths. The key identifier for classification here is the knitted or crocheted construction of the glove, mitten, or mitt.

The subcategories within 6116 further refine the classification based on specific material treatments or overall composition. For instance, 6116.10 deals with knitted or crocheted gloves that have undergone further processing, such as being impregnated, coated, covered, or laminated with plastics or rubber. The "Other" category would then encompass all knitted or crocheted gloves, mittens, and mitts not meeting the criteria for the treated subcategory, covering a broad spectrum of standard knitted handwear.
