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
