6204.69.05.10 - Subject to cotton restraints (348) 🖩

This HTS subcategory, 6204.69.05.10, specifically classifies women's or girls' trousers, breeches, and shorts that are made from textile materials not otherwise specified and are subject to cotton restraints. This implies the garments are primarily constructed of cotton or cotton blends, and their importation may be subject to quantitative limitations as indicated by the appended restraint code. These items are designed as apparel for women and girls, excluding swimwear.

This classification distinguishes itself from its siblings by its material composition and the presence of specific trade restraints. For instance, 6204.69.05.20 pertains to similar garments but is subject to wool restraints, while 6204.69.05.30 covers items under man-made fiber restraints. Therefore, the key differentiator for this category is the application of cotton-specific import controls.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Classification into this specific code is definitive based on the garment type (trousers, breeches, or shorts), the intended wearer (women or girls), the primary textile material (cotton subject to restraints), and the absence of other more specific classifications at lower levels. This ensures accurate duty assessment and trade monitoring for cotton-based recreational performance outerwear within this broad classification.
