Import Tips
• Label fiber content precisely; silk must predominate to avoid reclassification to cotton or synthetic subheadings
• Provide evidence of 'performance' use (e.g
• trail-specific design) to distinguish from standard shorts
• Check for bib/brace features; those would shift to overalls subheading within 6204
