About HS Code 610453

This HS code covers women's or girls' skirts and divided skirts that are knitted or crocheted from synthetic fibers, such as polyester, nylon, or acrylic. This category is a significant part of the modern apparel market for skirts, leveraging the versatility, durability, and cost-effectiveness of these materials. It includes everything from stretchy activewear skirts to sophisticated knit pencil skirts. The trade is dominated by large-scale manufacturing in Asian countries, catering to global fast fashion, activewear, and mainstream retail markets. Importers are major fashion brands, sports apparel companies, and department stores. Exporters are manufacturing powerhouses. Key aspects include fiber type, stretch properties, wrinkle resistance, and design for specific end-uses, often incorporating innovative textile technologies for enhanced performance or aesthetics.
