6307.90.89.85 - Containing 85 percent or more by weight of cotton

This HTS classification, 6307.90.89.85, specifically identifies made-up textile articles that are intended to serve as shells for quilts, eiderdowns, comforters, and similar bedding articles, with the defining characteristic that they contain 85 percent or more by weight of cotton. These items are pre-constructed coverings designed to house filling materials, forming the outer layer of these comfort items. The emphasis on cotton content is a key factor in differentiating this specific subcategory.

Distinction from sibling categories is crucial for accurate classification. While other "other" categories at this level might cover different types of made-up textile articles, this particular code is exclusively for the cotton-rich shells of bedding. For instance, sibling category 6307.90.89.95 would encompass other made-up textile articles not specifically defined by the cotton content and intended use as bedding shells.

As this node represents a leaf node in the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the focus for classification within 6307.90.89.85 rests entirely on verifying the product's construction as a shell for quilts, eiderdowns, comforters, or similar articles, and confirming that its cotton content meets or exceeds 85 percent by weight. This level of specificity ensures that only the intended cotton-based bedding shells are classified under this code.
