6204.62.05.05 - Insulated, for cold weather protection (359) 🖩

This HTS classification, 6204.62.05.05, specifically covers bib and brace overalls made of cotton, designed for recreational performance and offering insulated protection against cold weather. These garments are characterized by their full-length trousers with an attached bib that covers the chest and shoulder straps, providing comprehensive coverage and warmth for outdoor activities. The "insulated" aspect is a key determinant, indicating the presence of material designed to trap heat and provide a barrier against cold temperatures, suitable for activities like skiing, snowboarding, or other winter sports.

At this level, the primary sibling category, "Other," would encompass bib and brace overalls made of cotton that do not meet the criteria for recreational performance outerwear or insulated cold weather protection. Therefore, the distinction lies in the specialized functional design for specific outdoor, cold-weather pursuits. While both fall under cotton bib and brace overalls, this subcategory isolates those with engineered insulation and a performance-oriented design for demanding recreational use.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Classification is finalized at this point based on the material (cotton), garment type (bib and brace overalls), performance characteristic (recreational performance outerwear), and functional feature (insulated, for cold weather protection). Importers and exporters should ensure that the merchandise precisely matches these defining attributes to ensure accurate classification and compliance.
