The sample submitted is a pair of men’s rain pants made from a 100% nylon oxford woven fabric with a visible polyurethane coating on the inner surface. The garment has a one-snap fly, an elasticized waist and taped seams.

Based upon international textile trade agreements products of Korea are subject to quota and the requirement of a visa.
