Cotton Arm Warmers from Mexico

Detachable arm warmers made from woven cotton fabric, designed to be worn over long-sleeve shirts for added warmth. They qualify as made-up clothing accessories under HTS 6217.10.95 as they are neither knitted nor crocheted and not parts of garments. These are popular for outdoor activities in cooler weather.

Import Tips

• Verify the fabric is woven (not knitted) to avoid reclassification under Chapter 61; provide weave structure documentation

• Label fiber content accurately per FTC rules; common pitfall is misdeclaring blends exceeding 15% non-cotton fibers

• Ensure no metal parts or attachments that could shift to Chapter 83; declare as accessories only if sold separately
