Product description
Your sample will be returned as requested. Style ECWJACWQS12M is a man’s jacket constructed from a bonded fabric consisting of an outer layer of 100% polyester flat knit fabric, a middle layer of a polyurethane membrane, and an inner layer of 100% polyester flat knit fabric. The polyurethane membrane is not visible in cross section. Style ECWJACWQS12M features a stand-up collar; a full front opening with a zippered closure; long, tapered, sleeves with inner sleeve cuffs; a left chest pocket with a zipper closure; two side entry zippered pockets below the waist; unsecured inside pockets in the lower front panels; and a curved bottom with a drawcord and cord lock. Although you suggest classification in Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) 6113.90.9025, the coating on the fabric of the jacket is not visible as that term is defined in the tariff. Therefore, HTSUS heading 6113 does not apply.
