6216.00.41.00 - With fourchettes (331) 🖩

This HTS classification, 6216.00.41.00, specifically covers gloves, mittens, and mitts that are *not* knitted or crocheted, and are made of cotton. The defining characteristic of this subcategory is the presence of "fourchettes." Fourchettes are the small triangular pieces of fabric inserted between the base of the fingers and the palm of a glove, contributing to a more anatomical fit and dexterity.

This category is distinguished from its sibling, 6216.00.38.00, by the crucial presence of these fourchettes. While both cover other types of cotton gloves not knitted or crocheted, the inclusion or exclusion of fourchettes is the determining factor for classification. Therefore, if a cotton glove has these triangular inserts between the fingers, it falls under 6216.00.41.00, whereas one without them would be classified under 6216.00.38.00.

As a leaf node within the HTS, this classification has no further subdivisions. Classification decisions under this heading will primarily hinge on confirming the material (cotton), construction method (not knitted or crocheted), and the specific presence of fourchettes, alongside the general nature of the item as a glove, mitten, or mitt.
