Men's Flax-Cotton Crewneck Sweatshirt from Japan

This crewneck sweatshirt for men uses a cotton base with 38% flax fibers, knitted for softness and durability without ribbed waistband tightening. It matches HTS 6110.20.10.29 as an 'other' men's sweater-like article, high in flax, distinguishing it from plain cotton variants. Features include raglan sleeves for mobility.
