About HS Code 610463

This category covers women's and girls' knitted or crocheted trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches, and shorts made from synthetic fibers such as polyester, nylon, acrylic, or elastane blends. These garments are highly popular due to their durability, stretch, moisture-wicking properties, and affordability, making them staples in activewear, athleisure, and everyday fashion. The global trade is characterized by high-volume production, primarily in Asian manufacturing hubs, supplying major sports brands, fast-fashion retailers, and mass-market department stores across the globe. Key considerations include technological advancements in fiber development, performance attributes, and the increasing focus on recycled synthetic materials for sustainability. The market is driven by innovation in fabric technology and evolving fashion trends.
