Dear Ms. Smith:

In your letter dated November 18, 2004, you requested a tariff classification ruling on behalf of 180’s LLC. As requested, your sample will be returned.

The submitted sample, which you refer to as a “Gorgonz Workshirt,” is a men’s pullover garment constructed from 85 percent polyester, 15 percent cotton, finely knit pique fabric that measures 29 stitches per two centimeters counted in the horizontal direction. The garment has a rib knit crew neckline; short hemmed sleeves; mesh inserts extending from the underarms to the end of the sleeves; divided pockets with hook and loop closures on the left sleeve and on the left chest; self-fabric overlays on each shoulder; and a straight, hemmed bottom.

The applicable subheading for the “Gorgonz Workshirt” will be 6110.30.3050, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States, (HTS), which provides for: sweaters, pullovers, sweatshirts, waistcoats (vests) and similar articles, knitted or crocheted: of man-made fibers: other: other: other: other: men’s or boys’. The general rate of duty is 32 per cent ad valorem.
