Stretch Cotton Leggings

Women's stretch cotton leggings are form-fitting trousers knitted or crocheted from cotton fabric containing at least 5% elastomeric yarn for enhanced flexibility and comfort. They qualify under HTS 6104.62.20.06 as women's trousers (not swimwear) made of cotton with elastomeric yarn, distinguishing them from non-stretch variants. These are ideal for activewear or casual use.

Import Tips & Compliance

• Verify elastomeric yarn content exceeds 5% by weight via lab testing to confirm classification; provide fiber content labels per FTC rules

• Ensure garments have right-over-left closure or women's cut to avoid classification as men's under Chapter 61 notes
