Men's Cotton Twill Cargo Shorts from Germany
These men's cargo shorts are made from durable cotton twill fabric, featuring multiple pockets and a relaxed fit for casual wear. They classify under HTS 6203.29.3048 as shorts within men's ensembles of other textile materials, not meeting suit criteria but part of coordinated sets. The non-stretch, woven construction excludes them from knitted chapters.

Import Tips
• Verify ensemble packaging with matching jacket or upper garment to confirm classification under 6203; loose shorts may shift to 6203.43
• Label fiber content accurately per FTC rules, as cotton twill must declare exact percentages to avoid misclassification
• Ensure no elastic waistband or pockets below waist that could reclassify to Chapter 61 if perceived as athletic wear
