6204.69.04.20 - Bib and brace overalls (759)

This HTS classification covers bib and brace overalls specifically made from textile materials not falling under knitted or crocheted categories, and that are intended for recreational performance outerwear. These garments are distinct from regular trousers, breeches, or shorts by their characteristic bib and suspender design, intended to provide coverage and support for active pursuits. Within the broader category of women's or girls' trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches, and shorts, this specific sub-heading focuses on garments designed for active or sporting use where performance characteristics like breathability, durability, or water resistance are key.

The distinguishing factor for this classification lies in the garment's intended use as recreational performance outerwear, as well as its material composition and specific construction. While sibling categories at the same level might also cover trousers or shorts, they may not be specifically designed for performance or possess the distinct bib and brace feature. The parent category encompasses a wide range of women's and girls' lower body apparel, but this sub-classification narrows the scope to a particular type of garment with a defined functional purpose and material focus.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Classification under 6204.69.04.20 is definitive for bib and brace overalls designated as recreational performance outerwear, provided they meet the material requirements of the parent categories. When classifying, attention should be paid to the garment's design, labeling, and intended use to confirm it is indeed performance-oriented rather than general-purpose overalls.
