6211.42.10.70 - Vests (359)

This HTS code, 6211.42.10.70, specifically classifies vests for women or girls that are made of cotton. The term "vest" in this context generally refers to sleeveless garments worn over other clothing or as a standalone top. It's important to note that this category is distinct from other "other garments" within subheading 6211.42. While siblings might include items like washsuits, jumpers, or specific types of coveralls, this classification is narrowly defined to encompass only vests made from cotton.

The defining characteristic for classification under 6211.42.10.70 is the garment's construction as a vest and its material composition of cotton. This excludes vests made from other textile materials, such as synthetic fibers or blends, which would fall under different subheadings. Furthermore, it differentiates these vests from other types of upper-body garments that, while also sleeveless and potentially made of cotton, might be considered shirts, blouses, or specifically designed for athletic purposes like track suits.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subdivisions under 6211.42.10.70. Therefore, the classification relies solely on identifying a women's or girls' cotton vest that does not fit into more specific categories within Chapter 62. Practical classification considerations would involve examining the garment's design, intended use, and precise material content to ensure it aligns with the description of a cotton vest.
