Overview
This HTS subheading, 6211.33, encompasses "other garments, men's or boys'," specifically those fabricated from man-made fibers, which are not knitted or crocheted. This category serves as a catch-all for garments for men and boys that do not fall into more specific classifications within Chapter 62, provided they are made of synthetic or artificial fibers and are not knit or crochet. Examples include shirts, trousers, shorts, and jackets made from materials such as polyester, nylon, or rayon.
It is crucial to distinguish this category from its siblings. Subheading 6211.32 specifically covers similar "other garments, men's or boys'" that are made of cotton. Subheading 6211.39, in contrast, is for garments of the same type made from "other textile materials," which would include natural fibers other than cotton (like silk or wool) or blends not primarily composed of man-made fibers or cotton. Therefore, the key differentiating factor is the primary textile fiber content.
Within 6211.33, further subdivisions exist to refine classification based on specific end-use and design. The subcategory 6211.33.50 is designated for "recreational performance outerwear," implying garments designed for athletic activities or outdoor pursuits, often incorporating specialized technical features. The residual subcategory, 6211.33.90, covers all "other" garments falling under 6211.33 that do not meet the criteria for recreational performance outerwear. This structured approach allows for precise tariff application based on the intended function and material construction of the garment.
