Product description
As requested, your sample is being returned to you. The submitted sample, style 3Y1227, is a woman’s “Hollister” label cut-and-sewn pullover that is constructed from 60% cotton and 40% nylon lace-like knit fabric (the front and rear yokes and the top of the sleeve components) and 57% cotton and 43% polyester knit fabric (the remainder of the garment). The outer surface of the fabric measures more than nine stitches per two centimeters in the direction that the stitches were formed. The garment features a scoop front neckline, a high rear neckline, short turn-back sleeves, and a hemmed garment bottom. The garment extends from the shoulders to below the waist. As noted above, the garment is made up of two different types of knit fabric. Such garments are considered a composite good, with the classification determined by that fabric that provides the essential character. In this case, the knit fabric of the garment body provides the essential character. The garment is properly classified as an other pullover garment under 6110.20.2079, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS).
