6207.99.90.10 - Bathrobes, dressing gowns and similar articles (850)

This HTS category, 6207.99.90.10, specifically covers bathrobes, dressing gowns, and similar articles designed for men or boys that are not knitted or crocheted and are made from textile materials other than those specifically enumerated in preceding subheadings. The term "similar articles" generally refers to loungewear or at-home garments that provide coverage and warmth, intended for use within the home, such as kimonos or robes worn after bathing. The key defining characteristic here is the material composition; these items are manufactured from textile materials that do not fall into the more specific categories previously listed within the "Of other textile materials" group.

This particular subheading is distinguished from its sibling, 6207.99.90.40, which also falls under "Other" within the "Of other textile materials" grouping. While both are residual categories for men's or boys' similar garments made from non-specified textile materials, the distinction between 6207.99.90.10 and 6207.99.90.40 can hinge on subtle differences in the specific textile materials used or intended domestic market classifications that necessitate further breakdown. Without further defined subcategories for 6207.99.90.10, the classification relies on the broader definitions within the parent headings and general textile material classifications.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subdivisions. Therefore, accurate classification under 6207.99.90.10 depends on a thorough understanding of the preceding headings and the specific textile composition of the garment. Importers and exporters must confirm that the garment in question is indeed a bathrobe, dressing gown, or similar article for men or boys, is not knitted or crocheted, and is manufactured from a textile material not covered by more specific HTS classifications for this chapter.
