The cut and sewn garment features a full front opening secured by a rib knit belt, two front pockets, a shawl collar, long sleeves with rib knit cuffs and a loose fitting rib knit bottom.

The applicable subheading for style 11296 will be 6110.30.3059, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS), which provides for sweaters, pullovers, sweatshirts, waistcoats (vests) and similar articles, knitted or crocheted: Of man-made fibers: Other: Other: Other: Other: Other: Women’s: Other.
