Overview
This HTS classification, 6203.23.00.70, specifically covers men's or boys' shorts that are part of an ensemble and constructed from synthetic fibers. These shorts, when classified under this code, are distinct from other items within the broader "ensembles" category. The key characteristic is their role as a component of a coordinated set of garments, designed to be worn together as an ensemble.
Unlike sibling categories such as jackets (6203.23.00.55) or trousers (6203.23.00.60), this code is exclusively for the "shorts" portion of a synthetic fiber ensemble. The presence of other garment types within the same ensemble, such as a matching jacket or shirt, does not alter the classification of these specific shorts if they meet the ensemble criteria. The distinguishing factor is the item's primary function and its inclusion within a pre-defined matching set of clothing.
As this classification represents a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the focus for classification remains on ensuring the garment precisely meets the definition of "shorts" and is demonstrably part of an ensemble made from synthetic fibers, as per the provisions of heading 6203. The term "shorts" in this context refers to garments extending from the waist, typically covering the upper part of the legs, and not extending below the knee.
