Product description

The first submitted sample, identified as DVN4-6148, is a pair of ladies’ knit pull-on pants. The front and back panels are constructed of 100% nylon knit fabric which is coated with 100% polyurethane that completely obscures the underlying fabric. The fabric is brushed and does more than merely reinforce the plastic; therefore the coated fabric is considered fabric of 5903. The side panel consists of knit fabric which is composed of 90% rayon, 8% nylon and 2% elastane with a diagonal piping design. The second sample, identified as DVN4-7403, is a ladies’ knit skirt. The front and back panels are constructed of 100% nylon knit fabric which is coated with 100% polyurethane that completely obscures the underlying fabric. The fabric is brushed and does more than merely reinforce the plastic; therefore the coated fabric is considered fabric of 5903. The side panel consists of knit fabric which is composed of 90% rayon, 8% nylon and 2% elastane with a diagonal piping design. The samples are being returned as requested.
