6202.20.35.00 - Padded, sleeveless jackets (459) 🖩

This HTS category, 6202.20.35.00, specifically designates padded, sleeveless jackets that are not knitted or crocheted. These garments are designed as outerwear and fall under the broader classification of women's or girls' overcoats, carcoats, capes, cloaks, anoraks, windbreakers, and similar articles. The defining characteristic for this sub-classification is the presence of padding and the absence of sleeves, differentiating them from full-length coats or jackets with sleeves.

Within the broader heading 6202.20, which covers anoraks, windbreakers, and similar articles, this specific code distinguishes itself by focusing on padded, sleeveless versions. While other categories under 6202.20 might encompass similar types of outerwear, this code zeroes in on the combination of padding and sleeveless construction. It is important to note that this is a terminal node within the HTS, meaning there are no further subdivisions for this particular classification. Therefore, classification into 6202.20.35.00 relies solely on meeting the criteria of being a padded, sleeveless jacket, not knitted or crocheted, and intended for women or girls, aligning with the overarching scope of Chapter 62.
