Overview
This HTS category, 6505.00.60.45, specifically covers visors and other headgear that are designed to provide protection or adornment but intentionally leave the crown of the head uncovered. These items are typically made from textile fabrics, including those that are knitted or crocheted, or constructed from lace or felt. The defining characteristic is the absence of a crown covering, distinguishing them from full hats and caps.
Within the broader classification of "Other" headgear made from man-made fibers, knitted or crocheted, and not in part of braid, this subcategory is further distinguished from its sibling, 6505.00.60.90, by its specific functional design. While the sibling category encompasses "Other" headgear meeting the same material and construction criteria, 6505.00.60.45 is reserved for those articles explicitly designed *without* a crown cover, such as traditional visors used in sports or sun protection.
As this is a leaf node in the HTS database, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the focus for classification within this specific code rests on confirming that the headgear meets all preceding criteria: it is made of man-made fibers, is knitted or crocheted or made from such fabric, is not in part of braid, is not a hair-net, and critically, it is designed to provide no covering for the crown of the head. Examples include baseball caps without their crown fabric, sweatbands with a brim, or simple headbands with an attached visor.
