6210.40.80.45 - Overalls and coveralls (359)

HTS code 6210.40.80.45 specifically classifies men's and boys' overalls and coveralls that are made up of specific non-woven fabrics and felts, or fabrics impregnated, coated, covered, or laminated with plastic or rubber. These garments are designed for protective wear or as functional work attire, encompassing full-body suits intended to cover the torso, arms, and legs. The defining characteristic for this category is the construction from the materials specified in headings 5602, 5603, 5903, 5906, or 5907, distinguishing them from knitted or crocheted garments under Chapter 61.

This classification is distinct from its siblings, such as 6210.40.80.33, which covers trousers, breeches, and shorts. Unlike those categories, 6210.40.80.45 is exclusively for one-piece garments that provide full body coverage. The sibling category 6210.40.80.60, also designated as "Other," would encompass any other men's or boys' garments under heading 6210 not specifically listed, such as shirts, jackets, or coats, that do not fall under the overalls and coveralls classification.

As a leaf node, HTS code 6210.40.80.45 does not have further subdivisions. Therefore, classification within this code relies on the precise interpretation of "overalls and coveralls" and the prescribed textile materials. Examples include industrial work overalls, protective suits for agricultural use, or painter's coveralls, provided they meet the material composition requirements outlined in the parent headings. The focus is on the garment's intended use and its construction from specified coated or impregnated fabrics.
