Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If primarily cotton with less than 70% man-made fibers
Material composition determines subheading; cotton-dominant shifts to 6107.22 per statistical suffixes.
If mixed with other garment types in a set, excluding babies' items
Chapter note prioritizes 6113 for garments prima facie classifiable in multiple headings (excl. 6111).
If for non-knitted versions
Woven man-made fiber undergarments classify under Chapter 62, as Chapter 61 is strictly knitted/crocheted.
