6204.69.65 - Other

This HTS category, HTS 6204.69.65, encompasses "other" trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches, and shorts specifically made from textile materials not covered by preceding subcategories within the "Of other textile materials" heading. The defining characteristic here is the absence of specific material composition that would place them in other more granular classifications.

This classification distinguishes itself from its sibling, 6204.69.45, which specifically covers trousers, breeches, and shorts containing 70 percent or more by weight of silk or silk waste. Therefore, HTS 6204.69.65 applies to garments in this product group where the silk or silk waste content, if present, is less than 70 percent by weight, or where the primary textile material is something other than silk or silk waste and not otherwise specified.

Within this broad category, further distinctions are made. The subcategory 6204.69.65.70 specifically carves out "Bib and brace overalls" as a distinct group. This subdivision acknowledges the unique design and function of bib and brace overalls, separating them from other types of trousers, breeches, and shorts that fall under the residual "Other" designation.
