6203.29.15.20 - Trousers, breeches and shorts (447) 🖩

This HTS category specifically classifies trousers, breeches, and shorts designed for men or boys. These garments are intended as lower body coverings and are not knitted or crocheted, falling under Chapter 62 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule. The scope is limited to these specific types of lower body apparel, excluding items that function as swimwear or as components of a suit or ensemble that would be classified elsewhere within heading 6203.

Distinguishing this category from its siblings, it is important to note that it does not cover garments classified under heading 6201 (which typically refers to overcoats, raincoats, windbreakers, etc.), nor does it encompass jackets and blazers (6203.29.15.15). Furthermore, it is distinct from shirts (6203.29.15.30), which are upper body garments. The "Other" category (6203.29.15.60) would serve as a residual category for men's or boys' garments within this section that do not fit into the more specifically defined categories.

As a leaf node, this classification represents the most granular level for this particular group of trousers, breeches, and shorts. Therefore, the focus for classification within this code hinges on meeting all preceding criteria within the hierarchy, particularly the material composition (of wool or fine animal hair) and the fact that they are not part of a suit or ensemble that would be classified under a higher sub-heading. Detailed examination of the garment's construction, material content percentage, and intended cut will be crucial for accurate classification.
