6203.49.05.15 - Men's (647)

This classification encompasses men's trousers and breeches crafted from textile materials other than those explicitly enumerated in preceding subheadings, and which are not knitted or crocheted. It specifically falls under recreational performance outerwear, indicating garments designed for athletic or outdoor activities where functionality and material properties are key. The "Of artificial fibers" designation further narrows the scope to trousers and breeches made from synthetic or man-made fibers.

Distinction from sibling categories is crucial for accurate classification. While "Boys'" represents a similar item of apparel, it pertains to garments sized and styled for younger males. This category exclusively covers adult men's wear. The "Other" designation at this level implies that these trousers and breeches do not fit into more specific categories within recreational performance outerwear of artificial fibers, such as specialized ski pants or rain gear that might have their own distinct HTS codes.

As this is a leaf node, further subdivision does not occur. Therefore, classification within HTS 6203.49.05.15 relies on identifying men's trousers and breeches made from artificial fibers intended for recreational performance, which do not meet the criteria for more specific subheadings within this section of the tariff schedule. Examples might include hiking pants, casual athletic trousers, or general outdoor wear made from materials like polyester or nylon, where the primary design intent is for active use.
