Cotton Canvas Duffel Bag from China
A cylindrical cotton canvas duffel bag designed for travel, featuring a spacious main compartment and sturdy handles. It falls under HTS 4202.12.40.00 because its outer surface is primarily of cotton textile material (vegetable fiber, not pile or tufted), classifying it as a traveling bag similar to trunks or suitcases. The plain weave cotton construction ensures it meets the specific subheading for cotton.
