Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If made primarily from cotton
Cotton underpants and briefs fall under the specific cotton subheading in 6107.11, taking precedence over 'other' textile materials.
If sold as parts of a set with other garments
Garments presented as sets for retail sale may classify under 6117 for other made-up clothing accessories rather than individual underpants.
If not knitted or crocheted but woven
Woven underpants shift to Chapter 62 heading 6217, as this chapter applies only to knitted or crocheted articles.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify fiber content via lab tests to confirm 'other textile materials' status, avoiding reclassification to cotton or man-made fiber subheadings
• Label garments clearly with fiber composition and country of origin per FTC and CBP requirements to prevent customs delays
• Ensure no drawstrings or ribbed waistbands at the bottom, as these could shift classification under Chapter 61 notes
