6203.43.11 - Water resistant trousers or breeches (647)

This classification covers water-resistant trousers and breeches designed for men and boys, falling under the broader category of non-knitted or crocheted apparel. The defining characteristic is their water-repellent treatment or construction, which distinguishes them from standard trousers or breeches. This category is specifically for performance outerwear, indicating garments intended for active use in conditions where moisture resistance is a key functional requirement.

Within the "Of synthetic fibers" branch, this sub-classification is further refined under "Recreational performance outerwear." It stands apart from potential sibling categories that might also cover trousers or breeches of synthetic fibers but lack the specific water-resistant feature or performance outerwear designation. The focus here is on the functional attribute of water resistance as applied to recreational apparel.

The subcategories under 6203.43.11 provide further specificity for these water-resistant garments. "Ski/snowboard pants" are explicitly defined for activities in snowy conditions, while the "Other" subcategory accommodates a range of water-resistant recreational trousers and breeches not specifically designed for snow sports. This allows for detailed classification based on the intended end-use within recreational activities.
