6210.20.50.20 - Recreational performance outerwear (634)

This HTS category, 6210.20.50.20, specifically encompasses recreational performance outerwear constructed from fabrics falling under headings 5602, 5603, 5903, 5906, or 5907. This includes garments designed for active outdoor pursuits, where functionality such as water resistance, windproofing, breathability, and thermal regulation is paramount. Examples include specialized ski jackets, technical hiking shells, and high-performance cycling jackets, provided they meet the material and construction criteria of the parent headings and are not knitted or crocheted.

The distinction between this category and its sibling, 6210.20.50.29 (Other), lies in the explicit designation of "recreational performance outerwear." While the sibling category would cover other garments of man-made fibers, of the type described in heading 6201, that are not anoraks, windbreakers, or similar articles and do not fall under the specific performance criteria of this node, this category is precisely for those articles where enhanced functionality for sports or outdoor recreation is the primary design characteristic. The "634" designation in the description highlights this specific functional intent.

As this HTS code represents a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification within this code relies on meeting all preceding criteria, particularly the man-made fiber composition, the specific fabric types from headings 5602, 5603, 5903, 5906, or 5907, and the clear purpose as recreational performance outerwear, such as anoraks, windbreakers, and similar articles designed for athletic or outdoor activities.
