What HS 6207.19 covers
This HS code encompasses men's or boys' underpants and briefs made from textile materials other than cotton, specifically those that are woven (not knitted or crocheted).

These items often cater to niche markets, such as athletic wear (moisture-wicking, quick-dry), specialized comfort (soft modal), or high-end luxury (silk). Trade in these products is driven by innovation in textile technology and evolving consumer preferences for specialized features. Exporters are typically countries with advanced textile manufacturing capabilities, while importers include markets seeking performance apparel or premium undergarments. Key trade considerations involve accurate material labeling, performance claims verification, and managing diverse product specifications.

How these figures are built
109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries marked * did not, so their figures add up what other countries recorded trading with them, and their exports are valued at buyers' CIF prices. Those estimates miss trade with other non-reporting countries, so they can be low, and a non-reporting country can rank higher than shown or be missing from the list. World totals add both and leave out trade between two non-reporting countries. Figures are in current US dollars; reported imports are mostly valued CIF and exports FOB, and exports include re-exports. The UN Comtrade links show the underlying records; they can also list a few reporters left out here (regional groups and older HS editions).
