Overview
This HTS classification, 6216.00.43.00, specifically designates gloves, mittens, and mitts that are expressly designed for the sports of ice hockey and field hockey. These items are characterized by their construction from man-made fibers and their unique protective and performance features tailored to the demands of these particular sports, such as enhanced padding, grip, and flexibility.
Distinguishing this category from its sibling, 6216.00.46.00, is the specificity of the sport. While 6216.00.46.00 covers a broader range of "other" sports gloves, including ski and snowmobile gloves, this code is exclusively reserved for the distinct requirements of ice and field hockey. Therefore, gloves designed for general sports use or other specific sports not involving pucks or balls in the manner of hockey would fall under the sibling category.
As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subcategories. Classification under 6216.00.43.00 is final for goods meeting the description of ice hockey and field hockey gloves made from man-made fibers, with no further subdivisions based on material composition, construction, or specific design elements within this particular code.
