Overview
This HTS classification covers trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches, and shorts specifically constructed from cotton. The "Other" designation at this level indicates that these garments do not fall under more specific subdivisions within the cotton category that might exist for particular styles or constructions not detailed further. Therefore, this category is a catch-all for cotton trousers and similar lower-body garments that are not further specified.
The primary distinction for this category lies in its material composition, being exclusively cotton. It differentiates itself from other categories within Chapter 62.04 by focusing on trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches, and shorts, rather than suits, ensembles, jackets, dresses, or skirts. Furthermore, it is distinct from similar items made of other textile materials, such as synthetic fibers, wool, or artificial fibers, which are classified under different HTS headings.
As this is a leaf node in the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories for this specific code. Therefore, classification under 6204.62.50.00 relies on the precise material composition outlined in the description – containing 15 percent or more by weight of down and waterfowl plumage, with down comprising 35 percent or more by weight, and containing 10 percent or more by weight of down. This unique specification distinguishes it from other "Other" categories of cotton trousers, shorts, and overalls that may not have these down and plumage content requirements.
