6117.90.90.80 - Of cotton (359)

This HTS category, 6117.90.90.80, specifically classifies knitted or crocheted parts of articles of apparel and clothing accessories that are predominantly made of cotton. These parts are integral components used in the assembly of garments and accessories falling under Chapter 61. Examples may include knitted or crocheted cuffs, collars, waistbands, or pockets designed to be attached to larger textile garments or accessories.

This classification distinguishes itself from its siblings based on the primary material composition. While 6117.90.90.85 covers similar parts made of wool or fine animal hair, and 6117.90.90.90 pertains to those made of man-made fibers, this heading exclusively applies to cotton components. The category 6117.90.90.95 serves as a residual category for any other material not specified.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the primary classification criterion for items falling under 6117.90.90.80 is the definitive presence of cotton as the principal textile material used in the construction of the knitted or crocheted part. The functional purpose of the part within a larger article of apparel or clothing accessory is also a key consideration, ensuring it is not classified as a finished article itself.
