You submitted a sample of a garment, which you called a t-shirt. In a telephone conversation you stated that no style number was available for this pullover. The garment features a scoop neck, cap sleeves, a fitted silhouette and a triangular shaped inset panel, of a contrasting color, sewn into the front of the garment. This garment does not conform to the normal construction and features of a t-shirt for purposes of customs classification. You stated in your letter that the finely knit fabric is made of 95% bamboo and 5% spandex. For purposes of this ruling, we are assuming that what you call bamboo is actually an artificial fiber which is derived from bamboo. The applicable subheading for the pullover will be 6110.30.3055, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for Sweaters, pullovers…and similar articles, knitted or crocheted: Of man-made fibers: Other: Other: Other: Other: Other: Women’s or girls’.
