RE: The tariff classification of ski gloves and mitten from China.

Dear Ms. Friedel:

In your letter dated April 17, 1990 you requested a tariff classification ruling.

The submitted samples, styles 9969, 3719 and 3903, meet the criteria for ski gloves set forth in Stonewall Trading Company v United States 64 Cust. Ct. 482, CD 4023 (1970). Style 9969, a ski mitten, has a shell of 100% nylon woven fabric. Styles 3719 and 3903, ski gloves, have shells of 65% cotton / 35% polyester woven fabric.

The applicable subheading for style 9969 will be 6216.00.4400, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for gloves, mittens and mitts, other, of man-made fibers, ski or snowmobile gloves, mittens and mitts. The applicable subheading for styles 3719 and 3903 will be 6216.00.3400, HTS, which provides for gloves, mittens and mitts, other, of cotton, ski or snowmobile gloves, mittens and mitts. The rate of duty for both subheading numbers will be 5.5 percent ad valorem.

This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Section 177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).

A copy of this ruling letter should be attached to the entry documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported. If the documents have been filed without a copy, this ruling should be brought to the attention of the Customs officer handling the transaction.

Sincerely,

Jean F. Maguire
Area Director
