Style No. 1002 is a hip-length, bomber style jacket constructed from 100 percent silk, woven fabric. The sample has a rib knit collar, cuffs and waist; a full front opening with a zipper closure; and a button-down, back yoke.

The applicable subheading for Style No. 5001 will be 6205.90.2040, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for: men's or boys' shirts: of other textile materials: of silk or silk waste: other: containing 70 percent or more by weight of silk or silk waste.

These three garments are not subject to visa requirements or quota restraints.
