Men's Cotton Ski Jacket from China
A waterproof cotton-blend ski jacket designed for men, featuring insulated padding, multiple pockets, and adjustable hood for alpine skiing. It qualifies under HTS 6201.30.80 as an anorak (ski-jacket) of cotton, not part of a suit or ensemble, distinguishing it from knitted items in Chapter 61. The padded construction and weather-resistant features align with 'similar articles' in the heading.

Import Tips
• Verify cotton fiber content exceeds 50% via lab tests for accurate Chapter 62 classification; blends under 50% may shift to man-made fibers
• Include detailed invoices specifying 'ski-jacket' use to avoid misclassification as general overcoats under 6201.13
• Ensure country-of-origin labeling complies with FTC rules; common pitfall is undervaluing insulation materials
