RE: The tariff classification of ski gloves from China.

Dear Mr. Pellegrini:

In your letter dated February 8, 1999, on behalf of Paris Asia, Ltd,. you requested a tariff classification ruling.

The glove features a waterproof barrier insert, a vinyl palm patch which extends across the thumb, internal padded vinyl covered textile reinforcement across the back of the knuckles, an elasticized wrist, and a plastic hook and clasp. Style 92004 is a similarly constructed glove. The back of the hand is constructed with berber fleece fabric. The cumulation of features show a design for use in the sport of skiing.

The applicable subheading for both styles will be 6116.93.0800, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for Gloves, mittens and mitts, knitted or crocheted: other: of synthetic fibers: other gloves, mittens and mitts, all the foregoing specially designed for use in sports, including ski and snowmobile gloves, mittens and mitts.
