RE: The tariff classification of gloves from China.

Dear Mr. Pellegrini:

In your letter dated January 18, 1999, you requested a tariff classification ruling on behalf of Paris Asia, Ltd.

The provided sample, style 93005, is a lined and insulated men’s gunn cut glove with an outershell constructed of a woven polyester fabric. The glove features a leather palm patch which extends across the thumb, an elasticized wrist, a hook and clasp, padded internal knuckle reinforcement and leather trim at the 3 inch gauntlet cuff. The cumulation of features on the glove show a design for use in the sport of skiing. The essential character of the glove is imparted by the woven polyester outershell material.

The applicable subheading for style 93005 will be 6216.00.4600, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for Gloves, mittens and mitts: other: of man-made fibers: other gloves, mittens and mitts, all the foregoing specially designed for use in sports, including ski and snowmobile gloves, mittens and mitts.
