Men's Down-Filled Ski Jacket from Germany

This men's down-filled ski jacket is a padded outer garment designed for alpine skiing, featuring waterproof fabric, insulated lining, and multiple pockets, imported as part of a ski-suit ensemble. It falls under HTS 6211.20.28 as an anorak-type ski jacket for men or boys, specifically 'other' anoraks imported as parts of ski-suits, not qualifying as a full ski overall. Chapter 62 covers made-up textile articles excluding knitted ones, and this meets the ski-suit article definition by general appearance and texture for skiing.

Import Tips

• Provide proof of importation as part of a ski ensemble (e.g

• invoice showing set with trousers) to qualify under this subheading

• Label for care instructions and fiber content per US FTC rules; common pitfall is missing waterproofing claims substantiation
