Men's Downhill Alpine Ski Jacket

This knitted or crocheted ski jacket is designed for alpine skiing with waterproof membrane, synthetic insulation, and multiple pockets for lifts and gear. It pairs with matching pants to form a ski ensemble under HTS 6112.20.20.30 as it meets the criteria for ski-suits not qualifying as swimwear or other exclusions. The general appearance and texture identify it for skiing use.

Import Tips & Compliance

• Verify the garment's texture and appearance clearly indicate ski use per chapter notes to justify 6112 classification

• Provide lab tests confirming knitted/crocheted construction and waterproof features; declare as ensemble if sold with pants

• Avoid common pitfall of classifying as general jackets under 6110 if no ski-specific design elements like reinforced cuffs
