It is manufactured with an exterior and interior surface of man-made fiber textile materials. The case features a front exterior full-width zippered pocket for additional storage. It measures approximately 21”(W) x 14”(H) x 7”(D).

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