Overview

This HTS classification, 6203.22.30.30, specifically covers shorts for men and boys, when these shorts are part of ensembles manufactured from cotton. The "ensemble" designation is crucial here, indicating that these shorts are intended to be worn as part of a coordinated set with other garments, as defined by the broader heading 6203.

Within the "Of cotton" subcategory for ensembles, this specific classification distinguishes itself from other sibling categories by its singular focus on "shorts." For instance, it differs from 6203.22.30.10, which applies to garments falling under heading 6201 (typically coats and similar outerwear), and 6203.22.30.15, which pertains to jackets and blazers. It is also distinct from 6203.22.30.20 (trousers and breeches) and 6203.22.30.50 (shirts), as well as the general "Other" category at this level.

As this node represents a leaf node within the HTS database, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Therefore, the classification rests solely on the determination that the article in question is a pair of shorts, made of cotton, and is part of a men's or boys' ensemble. Practical classification at this level would involve verifying the material composition (cotton) and confirming the garment's function as shorts designed to be worn as part of a set, distinguishing it from standalone shorts or shorts classified under different material compositions or garment types.
