A boy’s size sample accompanied your letter and a men’s size sample was later provided. The boy’s sample was destroyed in laboratory testing. The men’s sample will be returned to you. The submitted sample, described as the “Zoom 2.0 Shirt,” Style 222620, is a boy’s garment constructed from 100 percent polyester finely knit fabric measuring more than 9 stitches per two centimeters counted in the horizontal direction. Although you state in your letter the fabric is of a double knit pique construction, the U.S. Customs and Border Protection laboratory has confirmed that the fabric is of an interlock construction weighing 113 grams per square meter. Style 222620 is similar to a T-shirt and has a crew neckline; short, hemmed sleeves; a small flat reflective heat seal logo on the right sleeve; and a straight, hemmed bottom. Style 222620 will be imported in Youth (boys’) sizes S-XL. The same garment will be imported as Style 222520 in Adult (men’s) sizes S-4XL. The applicable subheading for Styles 222620 and 222520 will be 6109.90.1049, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS), which provides for “T-shirts, singlets, tank tops and similar garments, knitted or crocheted: Of other textile materials: Of man-made fibers: Men’s or boys’: Other.” The rate of duty will be 32 percent ad valorem. Duty rates are provided for your convenience and are subject to change.
