6211.39.30.45 - Jackets and jacket-type garments excluded from heading 6201 (434) 🖩

This HTS classification, 6211.39.30.45, specifically covers jackets and jacket-type garments designed for men or boys that are not classified under heading 6201. These garments are characterized by their outer construction from textile materials other than knitted or crocheted fabrics, and are distinct from knitwear. The key differentiator is their woven or non-knitted textile composition, which dictates their placement within Section XI.

Within the broader category of "Other garments, men's or boys': Of other textile materials: Other," this subcategory for jackets and jacket-type garments is distinguished from its siblings. It is separate from track suits, ski-suits, and swimwear. Furthermore, it differs from shirts excluded from heading 6205, vests, and other miscellaneous garments by its specific design and function as outerwear, often providing a layer of warmth or protection.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories under 6211.39.30.45. Therefore, classification decisions for this code will rely on a thorough examination of the garment's physical characteristics, intended use, and precise textile composition to ensure it meets the criteria for a "jacket" or "jacket-type garment" and is indeed excluded from the more specific provisions of heading 6201. Examples might include windbreakers, light rain jackets, or casual outerwear not intended for extreme weather.
