6210.40.55.40 - Overalls and coveralls (659)

This HTS classification covers men's or boys' overalls and coveralls that are constructed from specific non-woven or coated/impregnated textile materials. These materials include felts or other non-wovens (headings 5602, 5603), fabrics coated or impregnated with plastics or rubber (heading 5903), or rubberized textile fabrics and fabrics coated or impregnated with plastic material (headings 5906 or 5907). The key determinant for inclusion in this category is the fabric composition and construction, rather than how the garment is put together or its specific design features, as long as it falls under the umbrella of overalls and coveralls for men or boys.

This subcategory is distinguished from its sibling, 6210.40.55.50, which also falls under "Other" men's or boys' garments of man-made fibers, by its specific fabric requirements. While both are "other," this particular code is reserved for those items made from the defined non-woven or coated/impregnated materials. Garments not meeting these specific fabric criteria, even if they are overalls or coveralls and made from man-made fibers, would be classified elsewhere.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification within this code relies on accurately identifying the garment as an overall or coverall for men or boys and confirming that it is manufactured from one of the specified textile materials found in headings 5602, 5603, 5903, 5906, or 5907. Common examples would include industrial workwear, protective suits, or specialized garments where the fabric's performance characteristics, derived from its non-woven, coated, or impregnated nature, are paramount.
