These knee-high stockings are knitted from cotton and designed with graduated compression to improve blood circulation in the lower legs, commonly used for varicose veins or edema. They fall under HTS 6115.10.30.00 as other graduated compression hosiery made of cotton, distinct from full pantyhose or tights. The compression gradient is highest at the ankle, decreasing upward, meeting the hosiery definition in Chapter 61 for knitted articles.

Import Tips

Verify cotton fiber content exceeds 50% with lab tests or supplier certificates to qualify under this subheading; blends may shift to synthetic codes

Include medical compression documentation if marketed for therapeutic use, as CBP may scrutinize claims for graduated pressure levels

Avoid common pitfalls like mislabeling as non-compression socks, which could reclassify to 6115.95, leading to duties or penalties
