Overview

This HTS category, HTS Code 6203.42.07.11, specifically classifies men's or boys' trousers and breeches made of cotton, falling under the broader classification of recreational performance outerwear. The defining characteristic of this subcategory is its construction from blue denim fabric. Denim, a durable cotton twill textile, is the primary material that distinguishes these garments.

Within the "Other" subcategory for cotton trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches, and shorts (6203.42.07), this specific code differentiates itself from its sibling, 6203.42.07.06, which covers corduroy garments. While both are cotton trousers, the textile weave and appearance of denim set this classification apart from the ribbed texture of corduroy. The sibling category 6203.42.07.16, also labeled "Other," would encompass cotton trousers not specifically classified as denim or corduroy within this level.

As a leaf node, HTS 6203.42.07.11 does not have further subcategories. Therefore, classification into this code is definitive based on the garment being men's or boys' trousers or breeches made of cotton denim, intended for recreational performance outerwear. Importers and exporters should ensure that the blue denim material and the general cut and style align with the intended use as outerwear for recreational activities when classifying goods under this code.
