6204.31 - Of wool or fine animal hair:

This HTS classification, 6204.31, pertains to suit-type jackets and blazers for women or girls that are specifically constructed from wool or fine animal hair. This includes garments designed to form part of a suit or ensemble, characterized by their tailored construction and typically featuring a structured bodice, lapels, and sleeves, intended for formal or semi-formal wear.

Distinguishing 6204.31 from its sibling categories is primarily determined by the material composition. While other categories under 6204.3 cover suit-type jackets and blazers made of cotton (6204.32), synthetic fibers (6204.33), or other textile materials (6204.39), this particular classification is exclusively for those garments where the predominant or defining textile material is wool or fine animal hair, such as cashmere, angora, or mohair.

The subcategories within 6204.31 further refine the classification based on the presence of other significant textile components. 6204.31.10 specifically addresses items that contain 30 percent or more by weight of silk or silk waste, indicating a blend where silk is a substantial element. All other suit-type jackets and blazers made of wool or fine animal hair that do not meet this silk content threshold fall under the broader category of 6204.31.20.
