6204.29.40.47 - Trousers and breeches (847)

This HTS classification, 6204.29.40.47, specifically covers trousers and breeches that are part of ensembles for women or girls, and are made from textile materials other than those specifically enumerated in preceding subheadings. The term "ensemble" refers to a set of garments that are intended to be worn together. Therefore, this classification applies to the trouser or breeches component when it is part of such a coordinated outfit, and where the textile material of the ensemble does not fall into categories like cotton, synthetic fibers, or artificial fibers when specifically mentioned at higher levels.

At this level, the key distinction is between trousers/breeches and shorts. Sibling category 6204.29.40.49 covers similar ensembles but specifically for shorts. Therefore, classification under 6204.29.40.47 is determined by the garment's cut and length; 6204.29.40.47 applies to longer garments covering the legs down to the knee or below, while 6204.29.40.49 is for shorter garments.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Classification decisions at this point rely on the precise definition of "trousers and breeches" as distinct from "shorts" and the material composition of the ensemble as a whole, as dictated by the higher-level parent categories. Examples would include women's or girls' matching trouser suits made from materials not otherwise specified, where the trousers are a fundamental component of the ensemble.
