The complete backside and fourchettes are made of a camouflage printed finely woven 65% polyester 35% cotton fabric. The glove features a ribbed knit cuff which measures approximately 4 ΒΌ inches in length. The essential character of the glove is imparted by the dot coated palm material. The cumulation of features on the glove indicates design for use in the sport of hunting.

The applicable subheading for the glove will be 6116.10.0800, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for Gloves, mittens and mitts, knitted or crocheted: impregnated, coated or covered with plastics or rubber: other gloves, mittens and mitts, all the foregoing specially designed for use in sports, including ski and snowmobile gloves, mittens and mitts.
