Product description

As requested, the sample will be returned to you. The submitted sample, Style 3C7204 (sizes 2-4T) and Style 3C9204 (sizes 4-6X) is a girls’ blue denim cotton short sleeve shirt. The garment consists of a front and back yoke beneath which are sewn vertically seven panels, three in the back and four in the front. The garment features a full frontal opening that fastens right over left and is secured by four buttons, a shirt collar, two chest pockets with fabric flaps and button closures and a banded bottom. You have proposed classification as an “other” jacket in tariff provision 6211.42.0075. This is not possible because the item is designed for use alone as a shirt or as an additional layer piece worn over, for instance, a tee shirt. The item will not be primarily used as a jacket.
