6211.43.05.76 - Other (659)

This classification covers women's or girls' vests, specifically those made from man-made fibers, that are designed as recreational performance outerwear. This category is intended for garments that are not primarily ski suits or swimwear but are intended for athletic or active recreational use, offering protection from the elements and supporting performance. Examples include lightweight vests designed for hiking, cycling, running, or other outdoor activities where a breathable, water-resistant, or insulating layer is beneficial.

This category is distinct from its sibling, "Containing 36 percent or more by weight of wool or fine animal hair," as it exclusively pertains to garments constructed from man-made fibers, such as polyester, nylon, or acrylic. The key differentiator here lies in the primary textile fiber content. While both are vests designed for recreational performance, the material composition dictates their placement within the HTS.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification within this specific code hinges on the garment meeting the criteria of being a woman's or girl's vest, made of man-made fibers, and designed for recreational performance outerwear, differentiating it from more specialized garments like ski suits or swimwear, or vests made from other fiber types.
