If features like drawstrings or pockets below waist
Garments with such features exclude from 6204 per notes and classify as other apparel in 6210, even if prima facie fitting trousers.
If knitted or crocheted construction
Chapter 62 excludes knitted articles, directing them to Chapter 61 headings like 6114 for woven-like trousers.
