6211.43.05.07 - Other, insulated for cold weather protection (659) 🖩

This HTS category, 6211.43.05.07, encompasses women's or girls' garments that are not knitted or crocheted, are made of man-made fibers, and are specifically designed for cold weather protection through insulation. This designation applies to apparel that, while falling under the broad umbrella of "recreational performance outerwear" or "coveralls, jumpsuits and similar apparel," does not meet the specific down and waterfowl plumage content criteria outlined in sibling category 6211.43.05.03.

The key differentiator for this classification is the presence of insulation intended to provide protection against cold weather. This insulation can be achieved through various materials and construction methods beyond down and waterfowl plumage. Examples include garments filled with synthetic fibers like polyester, or those featuring quilted constructions with thermal lining.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subdivisions. Therefore, classification within this category relies heavily on the precise interpretation of "insulated for cold weather protection" and the exclusion of goods specifically classified under the down and plumage criteria of its sibling. The intent and construction of the garment to provide thermal insulation are paramount for accurate classification.
