Dear Mr. Maher:

In your letter that was received by this office on October 7, 2005, written on behalf of Hoop Retail LLC, you requested a classification ruling.

Submitted style D2205B0002, manufactured from woven fabric that you state is coated with polyurethane, is a mesh-lined garment, resembling a pair of shorts, fully elasticized around the waistband through which an adjustable drawstring is threaded and at each side of which an open pocket is located.

As you have requested, the sample garment is being returned.
