6212.10.50 - Other

This HTS category, 6212.10.50, serves as a residual classification for brassieres that contain lace, net, or embroidery and do not fall under the more specific subcategory of those made predominantly from silk or silk waste. It captures brassieres where the decorative elements of lace, net, or embroidery are present, and the primary textile material does not meet the 70 percent silk or silk waste threshold of the sibling category 6212.10.30.

The distinction between this category and its sibling hinges on the predominant fiber content. While both deal with brassieres featuring decorative lace, net, or embroidery, 6212.10.30 is exclusively for those where silk or silk waste constitutes 70 percent or more of the weight, thereby granting them a more specialized classification. This category, 6212.10.50, therefore applies to all other brassieres with such decorative elements not primarily composed of silk.

To further refine classification, this residual category is subdivided based on the primary textile material of the brassiere itself. The subcategories include brassieres of cotton (6212.10.50.10), brassieres of man-made fibers (6212.10.50.20), and finally, an "Other" subcategory (6212.10.50.30) for brassieres where the predominant textile material is neither cotton nor man-made fibers, ensuring comprehensive coverage within this segment of decorative brassieres.
