Headings: 6201
Product description
The sample submitted, style number EZ425, is a men’s hip-length jacket with a shell composed of a woven 100% nylon fabric which has an acrylic coating for water resistance. The jacket is lined with a knit 50% cotton/50% polyester fleece fabric. The coating is not visible as that term is defined in the tariff, therefore HTS 6210 does not apply. The jacket has an integral hood with a drawcord tightening, a full front opening secured by a zipper closure, long sleeves with elasticized cuffs, two vertical front pockets with zipper closures at the waist and an elasticized waistband. The sample is being returned to you as you have requested. With your letter you submitted a test report from an independent laboratory certifying that the garment passed the water resistance test. We have not confirmed those results in our own laboratory; however, the Customs officer handling the transaction may choose to do so at the time of importation.
