Overview

This HTS category specifically covers shorts designed for men or boys, when these garments are constructed from artificial fibers and are part of an ensemble. Ensembles, in this context, refer to a set of garments assembled for sale as a single unit, intended to be worn together. The artificial fibers can include materials such as rayon, acetate, or acrylic.

It is crucial to distinguish this classification from its sibling categories. While all fall under "Men's or boys' suits, ensembles, suit-type jackets, blazers, trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches and shorts (other than swimwear): Of other textile materials: Of artificial fibers," this specific code isolates *shorts* that are part of an ensemble. It does not include standalone jackets, trousers, or breeches (6203.29.20.20 and 6203.29.20.30, respectively), nor does it encompass garments described under heading 6201 (6203.29.20.10) or shirts (6203.29.20.50).

As this is a leaf node within the HTS classification, there are no further subcategories for this specific entry. Therefore, classification at this level relies on a thorough understanding of the definition of an ensemble and the composition of the shorts from artificial fibers. Importers and exporters should ensure that the ensemble, as presented for customs, clearly consists of shorts as a primary component and that all constituent garments are made from artificial fibers.
