6203.41.06.30 - Shorts (447) 🖩

This classification covers men's or boys' shorts constructed from wool or fine animal hair. These shorts are specifically categorized as "other" within the broader "recreational performance outerwear" and "other" subheadings, indicating they do not fall into more specific definitions of performance wear or other distinct categories. The material composition is the primary defining characteristic for this particular item.

Within the "Trousers, breeches and shorts" level, this category is distinguished from its sibling "Trousers and breeches." While both are types of lower-body garments, this node exclusively pertains to shorts, irrespective of their length, as opposed to longer leg coverings. The "Of wool or fine animal hair" parent provides the crucial material basis, ensuring that only shorts made from these specific fibers are included here.

As this node is a leaf node in the HTS structure, it does not have further subcategories. Therefore, the focus for classification under this code rests on confirming the garment is indeed shorts, made from wool or fine animal hair, and that it does not meet the criteria for more specific classifications within the "recreational performance outerwear" or other related HTS chapters. Examples of items falling here would include classic wool walking shorts or tailored shorts made from cashmere.
