Men's trousers made primarily from artificial fibers like viscose with at least 23% wool by weight, knitted or crocheted for a soft drape. They qualify under HTS 6103.49.10.10 due to the wool content exceeding the threshold in artificial fiber base material, distinguishing from pure synthetics. Ideal for business casual wear with wool's warmth and artificial fiber's durability.

Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab testing to confirm ≥23% wool or fine animal hair, as misdeclaration can lead to penalties
• Include detailed invoices specifying knitted construction and exact wool percentage for smooth CBP classification
• Avoid common pitfalls like classifying as woven; ensure Chapter 61 applicability with knit stitch proof
