About HS Code 610190
This is a residual category for men's and boys' knitted or crocheted outerwear, such as overcoats, car-coats, capes, anoraks, and wind-jackets, made from textile materials not specifically classified under cotton (610120) or man-made fibers (610130). This typically includes garments made from wool, fine animal hair (e.g., cashmere, alpaca), silk, linen, or blends where these natural fibers are predominant. These items often cater to higher-end or specialized niche markets, prized for their natural fiber properties like warmth, breathability, luxurious feel, or unique textures. Importers and exporters in this segment are often luxury fashion brands, specialized boutiques, or manufacturers focusing on premium natural fibers. The craftsmanship and quality of the natural fibers are paramount in the trade of these goods.
