About HS Code 610343

This HS code covers men's and boys' knitted or crocheted trousers, shorts, breeches, and bib and brace overalls made from synthetic fibers. These garments are highly prevalent in the activewear, athleisure, and performance wear segments due to the inherent properties of synthetic materials like stretch, moisture-wicking, and durability. Global trade is dominated by major sports apparel brands, fast fashion retailers, and large department stores in North America and Europe. Exporters are typically specialized textile manufacturers in countries known for advanced synthetic fiber production and garment assembly. Key aspects for trade include the specific synthetic blend (e.g., polyester, nylon, spandex), the knit structure, and performance features. These items are often subject to stringent quality and performance testing.
