Knitted cotton garments principally for sports activities are directed to heading 6114, overriding other classifications per chapter notes.
If lacking the Chapter 59 coating and treated as standard knitted cotton
Uncoated knitted cotton women's trousers, breeches, or shorts are classified in heading 6104, as 6113 specifies fabrics of 5903/5906/5907 only.
