6204.69.65.50 - Shorts (847)

This HTS subcategory specifically classifies shorts made from textile materials other than cotton, man-made fibers, or vegetable fibers, and not of silk or silk waste. These shorts are intended for women or girls and fall under the broader heading of trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches, and shorts. The key defining characteristic is the textile material composition, which excludes those covered by other specific provisions.

This classification is distinct from its sibling category, 6204.69.65.40, which covers trousers and breeches. While all items in heading 6204.69 are considered trousers, breeches, or shorts, this specific subcategory isolates only "shorts" as distinct from longer legwear. The material "of other textile materials" further refines its scope, differentiating it from shorts made from silk or silk waste, which would be classified elsewhere.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS system, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification into this code relies on a thorough understanding of the material composition and the definitive absence of silk or silk waste as the primary textile component, alongside the garment being identified as shorts for women or girls. The "(847)" notation likely refers to a statistical suffix or internal reference used for tracking purposes.
