Women's Wool Cashmere Blend Blouse from Japan

A loose-fitting blouse made primarily from wool with a cashmere blend, featuring long sleeves, a collar, and a partial neckline opening. It qualifies under HTS 6206.20.30 as a women's shirt-blouse of wool or fine animal hair, not knitted or crocheted, and without pockets below the waist or ribbed waistband. This classification follows Chapter 62 notes defining blouses as upper-body garments that may be sleeveless or have openings.
