The garment has five panels that are sewn together lengthwise. It features a notched lapel collar, long sleeves, a full front opening with two button closures, two patch pockets, and a 100% polyester lining.

The applicable subheading for style F05-64-007 will be 6104.33.2000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for women’s suit-type jackets, knitted: of synthetic fibers: other. The rate of duty will be 28.8% ad valorem.
