6211.42.05.81 - Other (359)

This HTS category, specifically HTS 6211.42.05.81, encompasses "Other" garments designed for women or girls, constructed from cotton, and falling under the umbrella of recreational performance outerwear. This designation signifies apparel intended for active pursuits, such as athletic activities or outdoor recreation, that requires a certain level of technical or functional design. These garments are distinct from other categories at the same level due to their specific function as performance wear, rather than general leisure clothing or highly specialized athletic gear like tracksuits or swimwear.

The "Other" designation within this specific sub-classification is crucial. It serves as a residual category for cotton recreational performance outerwear that does not fit into more narrowly defined sibling subheadings, such as specialized washable suits or jumpsuits. The classification criteria will therefore hinge on a comprehensive analysis of the garment's design, intended use, and functional features that distinguish it as performance outerwear, while not conforming to more specific item types.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories to introduce. The classification decision for a particular item under HTS 6211.42.05.81 will therefore depend on a thorough examination against the broader definitions of recreational performance outerwear and the exclusion criteria of any more specific sibling categories. Key factors will include the garment's material composition (specifically cotton), its intended athletic or recreational purpose, and any technical features that enhance performance, such as breathability, moisture-wicking properties, or protective elements.
