This is a dyed woven cotton fabric with a 4-thread twill weave, containing 88% cotton and weighing 180 g/m². The warp yarns are indigo and the weft yarns are a lighter shade, but it does not meet the definition of denim under Chapter Note 1 because it is not warp-faced with a specific twill structure. It falls under tariff item 5208.33.00 as a dyed twill fabric.

Import Tips
• Confirm the fabric's cotton content is 85% or more and weight is under 200 g/m²
• Although described as 'denim', ensure it does not meet the specific denim definition in Chapter Note 1 (warp-faced 3-thread or 4-thread twill with warp yarns of one color and weft yarns unbleached or lighter); if it does, it would classify under 5209.42.00
• Provide detailed weave and yarn color information to CBSA
