Cotton Leggings

Full-length knitted cotton leggings designed as casual wear for women, featuring an elastic waistband for comfort. They fall under HTS 6114.20.00 as 'other garments' since they lack pockets below the waist, ribbed waistband tightening, or low stitch density that would classify them elsewhere in Chapter 61. These are standalone leg coverings not part of suits, ensembles, or ski wear.
