Description

Overview

Heading 6208 encompasses a specific range of women's and girls' intimate apparel and sleepwear, distinct from outer garments or other types of textile articles. This category is reserved for items designed for wear directly against the skin or as part of sleep attire, and importantly, these garments must be manufactured from woven or non-knitted textile materials. It's crucial to differentiate these articles from those classified under Chapter 61, which pertains to knitted or crocheted apparel.

Within the broad scope of Section XI, this heading specifically focuses on a particular subset of women's and girls' clothing. Unlike headings that might cover general apparel or accessories, 6208 is dedicated to items like singlets, undershirts, slips, petticoats, briefs, panties, nightdresses, pajamas, negligees, bathrobes, dressing gowns, and other similar garments, provided they meet the non-knitted material criteria. This heading is situated within Chapter 62, which generally deals with apparel and clothing accessories that are not knitted or crocheted.

The subcategories within heading 6208 provide further refinement for classification. "Slips and petticoats" are distinct from "Nightdresses and pajamas," reflecting differences in intended use and design. The "Other" subcategory serves as a catch-all for any garments that fall within the purview of heading 6208 but do not fit neatly into the more specific classifications of slips/petticoats or nightdresses/pajamas, allowing for comprehensive coverage of this apparel type.
