Track suits, of synthetic fibres, knitted or crocheted.
Classification of polyester tracksuit under HS 6112.12
Polyester tracksuits are classified under HS code 6112.12. This classification is governed by the notes in Chapter 61, which covers articles of apparel and clothing accessories that are knitted or crocheted. Heading 6112 specifically includes tracksuits, ski suits, and swimwear. The subheading 6112.12 is designated for tracksuits made of synthetic fibers, such as polyester. For an article to be classified as a tracksuit under this heading, it must consist of two pieces: a garment covering the upper part of the body (a jacket or top) and a garment covering the lower part (trousers or pants). These pieces must be of the same construction, style, and composition, and they must be of corresponding sizes. The knitted nature of the fabric is a requirement for Chapter 61; polyester is the most common material for these sets due to its elasticity and durability in athletic contexts. The classification remains the same whether the tracksuit is intended for professional sports or casual leisure wear, provided the technical requirements of a "set" are met according to the Section XI notes.

Codes often confused with 6112.12
Common mistake. A frequent error is classifying these items under 6211.33 (for men) or 6211.43 (for women), which covers tracksuits made of woven fabrics. The distinction between knitted (6112) and woven (6211) is the most important factor. Another misclassification occurs when the top and bottom are sold separately or are of different materials; in such cases, they cannot be classified as a tracksuit under 6112 and must be classified as individual garments (e.g., 6103 for men's trousers or 6105 for tops). Additionally, if the tracksuit is made of cotton, it falls under 6112.11.

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).
