The high flax proportion provides a linen-like texture suitable for business attire.

Import Tips

• Verify fiber content via lab testing to confirm at least 36% flax by weight, as required for this subheading; retain certificates for CBP review

• Ensure labeling complies with FTC textile rules, disclosing cotton/flax blend percentages and country of origin

• Avoid classifying as sweater vests if featuring heavy knitting or insulation, which shifts to other 6110 subheadings
