The Office of Trade,
which is the National Import Specialist

This slide is our disclaimer.

00:01:09.320 --> 00:01:12.240
I have highlighted one of the important
parts.

f4984f07-db15-43fd-9d1d-bd18178010f9-0
00:01:13.360 --> 00:01:17.640
We at CBP do our best to give you
accurate and timely information.

6426d806-6033-4f77-94be-0a52ef338fd5-0
00:01:18.280 --> 00:01:21.240
Sometimes, however,
things can and do change.

0976d309-39dc-43a1-afaf-31b312dd18b9-0
00:01:22.080 --> 00:01:26.035
Please don't solely rely on the
information in this webinar to classify

0976d309-39dc-43a1-afaf-31b312dd18b9-1
00:01:26.035 --> 00:01:26.640
your goods.

bf4300ec-989a-42af-b3be-874e13f647f7-0
00:01:27.080 --> 00:01:29.838
If you do,
it might not be considered reasonable

bf4300ec-989a-42af-b3be-874e13f647f7-1
00:01:29.838 --> 00:01:30.120
care.

72cae5e6-37be-4386-806e-2f04e5161c91-0
00:01:31.080 --> 00:01:35.856
If you have any questions regarding the
classification of your garment,

72cae5e6-37be-4386-806e-2f04e5161c91-1
00:01:35.856 --> 00:01:39.240
your best option would be to write in for
a binding

e37c1d8b-2cb7-466f-9b94-1dfbced74e12-0
00:01:39.240 --> 00:01:46.065
ruling. On this side,
we have our audio visual disclaimer and

e37c1d8b-2cb7-466f-9b94-1dfbced74e12-1
00:01:46.065 --> 00:01:51.772
this basically says that any video, sound,
images,

e37c1d8b-2cb7-466f-9b94-1dfbced74e12-2
00:01:51.772 --> 00:01:56.360
etcetera were obtained in a legal manner.

72a24604-a209-4f87-a057-38645d718ba8-0
00:02:02.870 --> 00:02:07.870
OK,
get a binding ruling.. first and foremost,

71461c09-e0a0-43a0-8621-68369b346dd4-0
00:02:08.070 --> 00:02:11.950
that is the most important part as far as
the trade is concerned,

c5af0d2b-6bd4-409c-a817-d4d1af28e7ed-0
00:02:12.910 --> 00:02:15.459
when you have questions in reference to
garments.

c5af0d2b-6bd4-409c-a817-d4d1af28e7ed-1
00:02:15.459 --> 00:02:17.550
Your best bet is to get a binding ruling.

d2cf51f9-9aa7-4a81-8f34-9144fb3e1113-0
00:02:18.470 --> 00:02:27.680
You can access this via our e-rulings
template that is https://erulings.cbp.gov.

c2af09ee-dd9a-4855-880a-073c6a313cd1-0
00:02:28.560 --> 00:02:32.120
I strongly recommend that you submit your
rulings electronically.

9f838615-c0b1-4d29-9335-6ec1c4bc1f5b-0
00:02:33.280 --> 00:02:37.280
They're usually quicker than the paper
based rulings.

10c0484e-3d31-4220-b1d7-bb458559d0d5-0
00:02:38.480 --> 00:02:43.549
They're already in our ruling system so
they don't have to be manually created.

10c0484e-3d31-4220-b1d7-bb458559d0d5-1
00:02:43.549 --> 00:02:44.320
For apparel,

9afd6fd3-d66b-47c4-a461-e4bb63483a6f-0
00:02:44.800 --> 00:02:49.040
most times, if not always,
samples are required.

32ce122f-43fc-4ac0-a675-47b735fde5d6-0
00:02:50.360 --> 00:02:54.800
You can submit samples even if you file
the request electronically.

46872dd5-1702-4bd7-b4a7-ec3b42feb9f8-0
00:02:56.040 --> 00:03:00.080
You just enter the information into the e-
rulings template like you normally do.

594660c2-5059-4211-a8aa-7fb0ed098f86-0
00:03:01.240 --> 00:03:04.560
Then you'll receive an e-mail that tells
you where to send the sample.

7186c68d-014a-42f7-b601-e49ae0be7e20-0
00:03:05.520 --> 00:03:07.280
This part is very important.

f1b22efb-548b-4a67-ae68-4e1f2a2f1e89-0
00:03:08.320 --> 00:03:13.196
Once you receive the e-mail telling you
where to send the sample,

f1b22efb-548b-4a67-ae68-4e1f2a2f1e89-1
00:03:13.196 --> 00:03:18.000
please send the samples right away and
the fastest way possible.

270e24c3-30f7-4018-94d0-61cf3216f280-0
00:03:19.240 --> 00:03:22.240
This is to ensure your rulings can be
completed on time.

83899523-9e99-4ffa-b7f0-47f35a397bb9-0
00:03:23.720 --> 00:03:29.908
If your company is a Trade Compliance
Partner certified for both CTPAT

83899523-9e99-4ffa-b7f0-47f35a397bb9-1
00:03:29.908 --> 00:03:34.392
and ISA,
please mail your rulings next day if

83899523-9e99-4ffa-b7f0-47f35a397bb9-2
00:03:34.392 --> 00:03:35.200
possible.

fe81020a-9cf2-4210-a9bd-2d5ebb1b8208-0
00:03:36.680 --> 00:03:42.309
Your rulings are considered time
sensitive and they have a shorter time

fe81020a-9cf2-4210-a9bd-2d5ebb1b8208-1
00:03:42.309 --> 00:03:45.828
frame,
so the sooner we receive the samples,

fe81020a-9cf2-4210-a9bd-2d5ebb1b8208-2
00:03:45.828 --> 00:03:48.800
the quicker we can issue your binding

2d66621d-eb53-4c71-8f84-73d7610e7b6f-0
00:03:48.800 --> 00:03:49.200
ruling.

20f49e6f-c00f-40a2-9657-780dfd0f9719-0
00:03:55.160 --> 00:03:57.120
If you missed something during this webinar,

5e592000-224c-42bd-a9c9-5e69d4adf35e-0
00:04:00.640 --> 00:04:02.440
please take down the information on this
slide.

8d00b89b-4bf7-46c7-ba65-bd2a5f58b15c-0
00:04:02.440 --> 00:04:06.680
This is where you can find this webinar
and also previous webinars.

a9448b1d-0100-48b6-9682-d11ec9603161-0
00:04:07.560 --> 00:04:11.480
So this topic and previous topics have
been covered.

374e8d79-50be-4a51-815a-abedef522c4e-0
00:04:12.040 --> 00:04:17.126
It's https://www.cbp.gov/trade/

00:04:17.126 --> 00:04:18.080
webinars.

43b9b762-b877-45fe-bcc4-756c53571e2f-0
00:04:18.080 --> 00:04:20.040
I'll leave this up in case you want to
take a picture.

27e7dd62-fea5-4c65-a301-1cd66666a63b-0
00:04:20.040 --> 00:04:20.760
Write it down.

44832bc7-5126-48ff-9f1e-d56cb6afe89c-0
00:04:21.600 --> 00:04:23.280
This is where you can find the webinar.

a191bffe-a3a6-4f66-b610-8f9b15cdc878-0
00:04:23.280 --> 00:04:28.233
So you can still e-mail me,
but this is the information that I would

a191bffe-a3a6-4f66-b610-8f9b15cdc878-1
00:04:28.233 --> 00:04:31.680
give you if you need to find the webinar
after.

b83f642a-0af8-48a1-8f6b-82e9f7a70aa8-0
00:04:41.160 --> 00:04:46.525
OK,
ruling checklist for NIS 361. This is a

b83f642a-0af8-48a1-8f6b-82e9f7a70aa8-1
00:04:46.525 --> 00:04:54.760
quick and dirty ruling checklist for
garments covered by NIS 361.

234c00d9-2860-4d55-9ceb-ddc5bf59ac6c-0
00:04:56.120 --> 00:05:00.831
Having this information helps me give you
the quickest and most accurate

234c00d9-2860-4d55-9ceb-ddc5bf59ac6c-1
00:05:00.831 --> 00:05:01.800
classification.

a575786c-e7f6-434b-8a41-5d073a8853fa-0
00:05:02.920 --> 00:05:06.854
Please keep in mind the more information
you provide upfront,

a575786c-e7f6-434b-8a41-5d073a8853fa-1
00:05:06.854 --> 00:05:10.282
the less likely I'll have to e-mail you
or worse yet,

a575786c-e7f6-434b-8a41-5d073a8853fa-2
00:05:10.282 --> 00:05:12.440
reject for additional information.

478c6349-174e-4be5-aed4-7fda7a16095a-0
00:05:13.480 --> 00:05:22.080
So we require that you submit an adult
size medium sample when possible.

c88b0add-fbeb-4036-ae5d-f6bb56f3d50f-0
00:05:22.720 --> 00:05:27.012
If you submit a smaller size we can
work around that,

c88b0add-fbeb-4036-ae5d-f6bb56f3d50f-1
00:05:27.012 --> 00:05:33.123
but we require a sample size adult medium.
The overall fiber content of the garment

c88b0add-fbeb-4036-ae5d-f6bb56f3d50f-2
00:05:33.123 --> 00:05:35.160
and weight is also required.

98ab75dd-e00b-4382-8e93-799e1eba6386-0
00:05:36.440 --> 00:05:40.795
Construction of the garment.
The stitch count and any type of

98ab75dd-e00b-4382-8e93-799e1eba6386-1
00:05:40.795 --> 00:05:46.274
marketing materials that might help us
identify and go online and look up and

98ab75dd-e00b-4382-8e93-799e1eba6386-2
00:05:46.274 --> 00:05:50.560
see how the garment is marketed for
classification purposes.

65634cb1-f2f9-443b-9b69-31fcd39d102a-0
00:05:57.890 --> 00:06:02.410
These are quick little simple tools that
we use in our office for classification.

5164ff73-59fa-42d6-a8bb-8eb30cc74946-0
00:06:03.450 --> 00:06:05.880
This is not anything crazy.

f0804f9d-ed17-4058-bddb-c6018bd7f68a-0
00:06:06.160 --> 00:06:09.040
Of course the mannequin is the most
important.

424af0f6-be9c-49d8-aa7c-d2ddc94d2aed-0
00:06:10.600 --> 00:06:15.520
We use a size medium mannequin.

76aaec6a-0519-4d7c-a0d1-7848919055da-0
00:06:17.040 --> 00:06:22.492
We have gone back and forth with the
trade in reference to the sizing of the

76aaec6a-0519-4d7c-a0d1-7848919055da-1
00:06:22.492 --> 00:06:26.457
the mannequins,
but we use the size medium and we realize

76aaec6a-0519-4d7c-a0d1-7848919055da-2
00:06:26.457 --> 00:06:31.626
that some of your mannequins might be size
medium as well and not meet the

76aaec6a-0519-4d7c-a0d1-7848919055da-3
00:06:31.626 --> 00:06:33.680
specification of our mannequin.

42ea1545-bf1c-487f-a710-f258f32d2352-0
00:06:34.960 --> 00:06:38.960
So we realized that all mannequins are
not created equal.

04241d6c-dd92-428e-b779-12003a1237cd-0
00:06:39.600 --> 00:06:44.881
And if you have a garment that you feel
may be controversial,

04241d6c-dd92-428e-b779-12003a1237cd-1
00:06:44.881 --> 00:06:51.440
please e-mail me after submitting the
ruling and this way we can discuss the

04241d6c-dd92-428e-b779-12003a1237cd-2
00:06:51.440 --> 00:06:53.400
garment over the phone.

9c0678bb-7cbd-4084-a97e-ad3ea22920aa-0
00:06:54.960 --> 00:06:59.200
The next item is the measuring tape and
that's used to measure,

00a67b9a-f0df-4530-837d-1700d676e2fd-0
00:06:59.200 --> 00:07:03.560
on occasion we might have to measure the
front back of the garment,

daf6951a-189b-4704-b101-9aca2e71108e-0
00:07:03.560 --> 00:07:08.400
for the purposes of knit and woven.
We use the pick glass.

f5c2a037-5d12-4590-a506-df1ebfbeb523-0
00:07:08.680 --> 00:07:10.320
This is used to count stitches.

90d0a363-d70b-4e03-ab7a-2a22c0ceb3a7-0
00:07:10.960 --> 00:07:14.640
That's an important part of what we do on
a daily basis when we get samples.

0eee9326-92da-481f-8859-d1e4e8bbb8d2-0
00:07:16.000 --> 00:07:19.040
The ruler,
scissors, and seam rippers are used,

251a7826-3daa-43bb-b2d2-03a53241b8c9-0
00:07:19.160 --> 00:07:24.280
of course, if we need to check the hem
ourself, stock bottoms, etcetera.

501460e1-4f64-43fa-883b-863c8a65d107-0
00:07:30.780 --> 00:07:33.140
The Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States.

0a29742d-667b-42a1-92c5-0e025c5e2337-0
00:07:33.140 --> 00:07:35.500
This is the 2025 Section 11.

72dfdb87-7f42-46f9-b0ea-39aa84f1e13b-0
00:07:36.560 --> 00:07:43.360
This explains our two major issues that
we have right now going on.

aa99084f-a4c8-4f7b-a9a2-9512f38096af-0
00:07:45.200 --> 00:07:48.320
There were drastic changes that took
place in 2022.

7faf2089-b9c4-4be4-87f9-cb42f9eb0840-0
00:07:49.280 --> 00:07:50.720
Turned our world, well,

ab8e1d2d-9fac-498e-ac2e-e429c2ec8e28-0
00:07:51.160 --> 00:07:58.960
my world, the 6106 world, the 6110 world,
upside down. Under note 4 to chapter 61,

57913d73-a9b1-4076-98f2-d1b52fd72c82-0
00:07:59.640 --> 00:08:06.578
the garments that are not covered remain
the same as they were in 2021,

57913d73-a9b1-4076-98f2-d1b52fd72c82-1
00:08:06.578 --> 00:08:10.240
and that is - headings 6105 and 6106

d1b9813e-ecec-4e07-b252-60bebac87580-0
00:08:10.360 --> 00:08:14.906
do not cover garments with pockets below
the waist, with a ribbed waistband or

d1b9813e-ecec-4e07-b252-60bebac87580-1
00:08:14.906 --> 00:08:19.827
other means of tightening at the bottom,
or garments having an average of less

d1b9813e-ecec-4e07-b252-60bebac87580-2
00:08:19.827 --> 00:08:23.439
than 10 stitches per linear centimeter in
each direction.

0c6088f8-f883-4fe1-9bf5-c67fa2863003-0
00:08:25.600 --> 00:08:29.160
Heading 6105 does not cover sleeveless
garments.

aa58ebbd-f411-427d-8dfa-dae50f3f8515-0
00:08:30.880 --> 00:08:34.120
However, now it includes new language.

ec03d0a7-e88f-4ba2-a9e4-a0134cb52700-0
00:08:36.240 --> 00:08:40.594
The new language has to do with shirts
and shirt blouses,

ec03d0a7-e88f-4ba2-a9e4-a0134cb52700-1
00:08:40.594 --> 00:08:45.774
and these garments are designed to cover
the upper part of the body,

ec03d0a7-e88f-4ba2-a9e4-a0134cb52700-2
00:08:45.774 --> 00:08:51.404
having long or short sleeves and a full
or partial opening, starting at the

ec03d0a7-e88f-4ba2-a9e4-a0134cb52700-3
00:08:51.404 --> 00:08:52.080
neckline.

af31dead-d319-4421-b8ed-02bac4b45dae-0
00:08:53.840 --> 00:08:58.827
Blouses are loose fitting garments
designed to cover the upper part of the

af31dead-d319-4421-b8ed-02bac4b45dae-1
00:08:58.827 --> 00:08:59.160
body.

e4f72a93-b099-4df5-9509-ac62cfab827a-0
00:08:59.880 --> 00:09:06.200
They may be sleeveless, with or without an
opening at the neckline. And shirts,

e4f72a93-b099-4df5-9509-ac62cfab827a-1
00:09:06.200 --> 00:09:10.200
shirt blouses and blouses may also have a
collar.

b4c1973f-c2a2-43ef-89ed-14e8e33e24f1-0
00:09:19.770 --> 00:09:25.475
Characteristics of Shirts and Shirt
Blouses.. we don't get too many quote

b4c1973f-c2a2-43ef-89ed-14e8e33e24f1-1
00:09:25.475 --> 00:09:30.876
unquote shirt or shirt blouses,
but they are designed to cover the upper

b4c1973f-c2a2-43ef-89ed-14e8e33e24f1-2
00:09:30.876 --> 00:09:32.170
part of the body.

2a455748-cb12-4245-9b1c-3cfb5c5b351b-0
00:09:35.050 --> 00:09:38.873
On the left side is an example of one
with long sleeves,

2a455748-cb12-4245-9b1c-3cfb5c5b351b-1
00:09:38.873 --> 00:09:41.960
right side, example of one with short
sleeves.

338930f6-d4d9-4e1d-b404-ebd517f55ded-0
00:09:42.560 --> 00:09:47.040
They both have collars and they both have
a full of partial opening starting at the

338930f6-d4d9-4e1d-b404-ebd517f55ded-1
00:09:47.040 --> 00:09:47.520
neckline.

7885cf52-83c5-453b-a7cc-caeaca9fd393-0
00:09:48.640 --> 00:09:50.800
One is partial and one goes all the way
down.

6c5dcc0f-cc89-432a-b9c1-756f996b2ba4-0
00:09:51.360 --> 00:09:56.926
They both have a collar treatment,
and in this case it's the standard collar

6c5dcc0f-cc89-432a-b9c1-756f996b2ba4-1
00:09:56.926 --> 00:10:00.468
treatment,
and they could also have a hood or no

6c5dcc0f-cc89-432a-b9c1-756f996b2ba4-2
00:10:00.468 --> 00:10:01.480
collar at all.

f03b7c06-5d1c-4a7f-af53-1606bf55ab7b-0
00:10:03.880 --> 00:10:06.288
Once again,
they must have the average of 10 or more

f03b7c06-5d1c-4a7f-af53-1606bf55ab7b-1
00:10:06.288 --> 00:10:08.560
stitches per linear centimeter in each
direction.

82ebb481-de86-43ff-8b18-c60917aa1656-0
00:10:13.520 --> 00:10:16.200
These garments, the shirts and shirt
blouses,

ec340569-cdaa-485b-81ba-8e7cf6f9aef5-0
00:10:16.680 --> 00:10:19.480
the note does not specifically say tight
fitting.

50791f7e-31e3-45cc-82e1-55bbe1a08a8d-0
00:10:20.120 --> 00:10:23.883
However,
the textile guidelines do mention that

50791f7e-31e3-45cc-82e1-55bbe1a08a8d-1
00:10:23.883 --> 00:10:29.921
the construction of the shirt and shirt
blouses tend to be a little bit more

50791f7e-31e3-45cc-82e1-55bbe1a08a8d-2
00:10:29.921 --> 00:10:31.960
tailored than the blouses.

42353e1f-0bbf-41e7-94b3-e102f4d721d5-0
00:10:34.000 --> 00:10:39.494
So though it's not specifically
enumerated in the tariff separately,

42353e1f-0bbf-41e7-94b3-e102f4d721d5-1
00:10:39.494 --> 00:10:44.910
this is how we kind of got,
if we're just going to say it's a shirt

42353e1f-0bbf-41e7-94b3-e102f4d721d5-2
00:10:44.910 --> 00:10:49.051
or a blouse, for all intents and 
purposes,

42353e1f-0bbf-41e7-94b3-e102f4d721d5-3
00:10:49.051 --> 00:10:51.520
the classification is the same.

6e641da1-f5f2-47d7-b3ad-b2f4c85de2fb-0
00:10:54.880 --> 00:10:57.600
OK,
we have our characteristics of blouses.

04dd0733-6b1d-4316-b74d-6ae89b5ed15e-0
00:11:00.080 --> 00:11:07.480
This is our 6106 blouse.

4289b3f4-bc67-40d3-afb6-19ce6e7d2217-0
00:11:08.760 --> 00:11:10.320
The first feature is loose fitting.

013df21a-6e51-458a-9aa3-f67faa4e1d28-0
00:11:11.600 --> 00:11:18.007
It's designed to cover the upper part of
the body, sleeves or sleeveless, and it can

013df21a-6e51-458a-9aa3-f67faa4e1d28-1
00:11:18.007 --> 00:11:21.680
be with or without an opening at the
neckline.

e467d975-0efc-4adc-9fab-4bd7f8738052-0
00:11:22.960 --> 00:11:23.840
So you have both.

53a9aeb5-e36b-4ece-a494-bebd6daaf578-0
00:11:24.680 --> 00:11:27.740
These also may have collar treatments of
any type,

53a9aeb5-e36b-4ece-a494-bebd6daaf578-1
00:11:27.740 --> 00:11:30.620
including hood or no collar, and once
again,

53a9aeb5-e36b-4ece-a494-bebd6daaf578-2
00:11:30.620 --> 00:11:35.360
they must have an average of 10 or more
stitches per linear centimeter in each

53a9aeb5-e36b-4ece-a494-bebd6daaf578-3
00:11:35.360 --> 00:11:35.960
direction.

a2cea1f3-a515-40da-8534-9755c4aa4f1d-0
00:11:45.600 --> 00:11:49.840
The exclusion part for shirt,
shirt blouses and blouses.

afe044e1-1df4-4b08-ad86-b0e023757335-0
00:11:53.240 --> 00:12:02.023
The garment on the left is what we would
consider pockets below the waist, and the

afe044e1-1df4-4b08-ad86-b0e023757335-1
00:12:02.023 --> 00:12:09.200
garment on the right is a tightening at
the bottom of the garment.

a8de2201-7b00-40e0-becb-d8d433f4d15a-0
00:12:09.720 --> 00:12:16.600
So both of these particular garments
would be excluded.

98179fe6-4d9c-4760-b7af-a10f8252d943-0
00:12:16.680 --> 00:12:26.454
And this is just a basic,
simple picture to kind of give you an

98179fe6-4d9c-4760-b7af-a10f8252d943-1
00:12:26.454 --> 00:12:38.826
idea of what that would look like. Quick
definitions of some features that we have

98179fe6-4d9c-4760-b7af-a10f8252d943-2
00:12:38.826 --> 00:12:41.270
in our garments.

98e1900a-168e-437d-9961-fbd73bf1e4c9-0
00:12:42.310 --> 00:12:48.873
Neckline, which is defined as the
shape or contour of a garment at the

98e1900a-168e-437d-9961-fbd73bf1e4c9-1
00:12:48.873 --> 00:12:53.450
shoulders,
neck, or above the waist, and it can be low

98e1900a-168e-437d-9961-fbd73bf1e4c9-2
00:12:53.450 --> 00:12:56.560
or high. So you can have a v-neckline,

f5f4737e-d0b3-4f93-a6f3-a83d31e7f400-0
00:12:56.920 --> 00:13:03.745
round or crew. Opening is considered the
breach or gap in the neckline, with a

f5f4737e-d0b3-4f93-a6f3-a83d31e7f400-1
00:13:03.745 --> 00:13:10.571
functional closure or overlap to close
the gap of the breach. And Closures are

f5f4737e-d0b3-4f93-a6f3-a83d31e7f400-2
00:13:10.571 --> 00:13:17.574
functional trims used to open or close a
garment, and examples of those would be

f5f4737e-d0b3-4f93-a6f3-a83d31e7f400-3
00:13:17.574 --> 00:13:21.119
snaps, buttons, ties, zippers, etc.

96256901-49b0-4fb2-b601-7cbbd559b19c-0
00:13:29.640 --> 00:13:35.553
Now I'd like to touch on two HQ's
rulings that we sent up

96256901-49b0-4fb2-b601-7cbbd559b19c-1
00:13:35.553 --> 00:13:42.424
several years ago when we first started
doing the 6106 blouses and the loose

96256901-49b0-4fb2-b601-7cbbd559b19c-2
00:13:42.424 --> 00:13:43.120
fitting.

ff17d164-d6c6-4b64-a86b-0d18c67d7217-0
00:13:44.800 --> 00:13:51.564
The issue was whether the women's knit
upper body garment is a blouse of heading

ff17d164-d6c6-4b64-a86b-0d18c67d7217-1
00:13:51.564 --> 00:13:55.406
6106,
which provides for blouses and shirts,

ff17d164-d6c6-4b64-a86b-0d18c67d7217-2
00:13:55.406 --> 00:13:57.160
knitted or crocheted.

5082637d-797b-4fe1-adcf-b0c1a0f43d31-0
00:13:57.160 --> 00:14:07.000
In this these two particular rulings,
it was of cotton, and the

5082637d-797b-4fe1-adcf-b0c1a0f43d31-1
00:14:07.000 --> 00:14:11.640
harmonized commodity description,

9b553e8a-0579-4c1a-a0dd-b176bb130880-0
00:14:12.960 --> 00:14:21.091
what they explained first was, they went
to the explanatory notes and what they

9b553e8a-0579-4c1a-a0dd-b176bb130880-1
00:14:21.091 --> 00:14:29.120
did first was they tried to come up with
a legal answer to the loose fitting.

578fbfe4-7c07-4a56-a172-a1f036c19c5d-0
00:14:30.680 --> 00:14:35.515
This is all in the memo itself and I've
taken out certain points of the memo that

578fbfe4-7c07-4a56-a172-a1f036c19c5d-1
00:14:35.515 --> 00:14:36.400
we can discuss.

c9b738ed-7512-4a6e-b677-764e5237e196-0
00:14:37.360 --> 00:14:42.317
So the highlighted portion says,
while neither legally binding nor

c9b738ed-7512-4a6e-b677-764e5237e196-1
00:14:42.317 --> 00:14:45.697
dispositive,
the explanatory notes provide a

c9b738ed-7512-4a6e-b677-764e5237e196-2
00:14:45.697 --> 00:14:51.705
commentary on the scope of each heading
and they're generally indicative of the

c9b738ed-7512-4a6e-b677-764e5237e196-3
00:14:51.705 --> 00:14:54.560
proper interpretation of the headings.

faf9bf7c-ea38-4d99-a75a-4ec691af20c1-0
00:15:01.880 --> 00:15:09.346
So what they did here was, they referred
to the headquarters ruling 951900 and

faf9bf7c-ea38-4d99-a75a-4ec691af20c1-1
00:15:09.346 --> 00:15:16.334
this is where CBP suggested that, to
determine whether a garment is loose

faf9bf7c-ea38-4d99-a75a-4ec691af20c1-2
00:15:16.334 --> 00:15:20.642
fitting,
they place the garment on a size 10

faf9bf7c-ea38-4d99-a75a-4ec691af20c1-3
00:15:20.642 --> 00:15:21.600
mannequin.

84629e51-0ffb-4e12-adab-107a5a4a09c3-0
00:15:22.440 --> 00:15:27.559
And this was done to maintain consistency
throughout the examination process, and

84629e51-0ffb-4e12-adab-107a5a4a09c3-1
00:15:27.559 --> 00:15:31.920
the examination process of garments for
the classification purposes.

779fda98-fd4f-4fa2-bbc1-14deb206cba6-0
00:15:33.480 --> 00:15:41.485
It cannot just rely on photos,
worn by a picture or worn by somebody in

779fda98-fd4f-4fa2-bbc1-14deb206cba6-1
00:15:41.485 --> 00:15:50.520
the office to determine whether the
garment was going to maintain consistency.

8f1c035c-51a8-4d85-b5f5-d29f2e57f375-0
00:15:50.600 --> 00:15:54.880
So we had to,
we had to use the size 10 mannquin.

905d4ba1-2ca7-4c88-a79c-3050060f3db2-0
00:15:57.680 --> 00:16:02.762
And that's what we use, and that's what we
rely on, on a daily basis to measure

905d4ba1-2ca7-4c88-a79c-3050060f3db2-1
00:16:02.762 --> 00:16:07.520
certain elements of the garment that
would influence the classification.

ac483cb2-955a-4cd7-8336-ffe604a0c01c-0
00:16:08.680 --> 00:16:15.920
We use a standard size medium 24,
I mean medium garment, size 10, excuse me.

ed367d61-ab83-4c4f-a79e-8936e45f6544-0
00:16:22.940 --> 00:16:27.402
This was one of the garments that they
viewed and upon review of the sample,

ed367d61-ab83-4c4f-a79e-8936e45f6544-1
00:16:27.402 --> 00:16:31.749
they placed this particular garment on
the mannequin and determined that the

ed367d61-ab83-4c4f-a79e-8936e45f6544-2
00:16:31.749 --> 00:16:34.300
garment did not cling close to the
mannequin.

b73b725b-fd3a-4c60-a03b-2a0c999a3c48-0
00:16:35.700 --> 00:16:41.886
So they determined that the upper body
garment is loose fitting and it meets

b73b725b-fd3a-4c60-a03b-2a0c999a3c48-1
00:16:41.886 --> 00:16:47.280
the criteria required for the term
blouses in note 4 to Chapter 61.

84afb839-d4c5-4327-9a89-59f51797fc66-0
00:16:48.120 --> 00:16:54.924
Please keep in mind that this sample is
one of several that were sent, that were

84afb839-d4c5-4327-9a89-59f51797fc66-1
00:16:54.924 --> 00:17:01.729
sent to headquarters and then one on the
next slide was also sent in early May

84afb839-d4c5-4327-9a89-59f51797fc66-2
00:17:01.729 --> 00:17:02.160
2022.

fb58fd18-495b-448f-b3e7-5e4a273bf4ea-0
00:17:02.520 --> 00:17:07.080
And these were sent so that we would have
some type of consistency and guideline

fb58fd18-495b-448f-b3e7-5e4a273bf4ea-1
00:17:07.080 --> 00:17:10.626
going forward, because we knew we were
going to get many, many,

fb58fd18-495b-448f-b3e7-5e4a273bf4ea-2
00:17:10.626 --> 00:17:11.640
many more samples.

7a4a90cc-b0c2-4870-80f7-7f64f68c2f65-0
00:17:13.440 --> 00:17:15.600
Description of this one is pretty simple.

1ce23d17-4d2c-4790-848e-7b4c72ba32b1-0
00:17:15.600 --> 00:17:22.960
It's a crew neck, was described as a crew
neck, short hem sleeve, straight bottom.

186d3ace-ec78-4297-9289-1a56c54ea00a-0
00:17:23.840 --> 00:17:26.880
And we determined that, yes,
this garment was definitely loose fitting.

81456acc-2ead-4b9e-8699-1e3b966d54fa-0
00:17:29.560 --> 00:17:35.656
The next sample that was submitted to
headquarters for that ruling, and this

81456acc-2ead-4b9e-8699-1e3b966d54fa-1
00:17:35.656 --> 00:17:40.309
sample upon review,
once again CBP determined that the

81456acc-2ead-4b9e-8699-1e3b966d54fa-2
00:17:40.309 --> 00:17:44.000
garment did not cling close to the
mannequin.

60559d70-ef13-4963-a202-97b7e4cfe39b-0
00:17:45.360 --> 00:17:48.835
Accordingly,
they determined that the upper body

60559d70-ef13-4963-a202-97b7e4cfe39b-1
00:17:48.835 --> 00:17:54.440
garment is loose fitting, and this garment
was just described as a jersey knit.

347a03f6-5a79-4ca1-83b7-88e07ff1d7e6-0
00:17:54.680 --> 00:17:58.476
The garment had a curved hem bottom,
crew neckline,

347a03f6-5a79-4ca1-83b7-88e07ff1d7e6-1
00:17:58.476 --> 00:18:02.720
it had no opening and it had 3/4
inch sleeves.

6094b48e-a68b-4cb9-ac61-8f7e7d03e012-0
00:18:08.880 --> 00:18:12.298
I added this slide this time because
we've been getting a lot of questions on

6094b48e-a68b-4cb9-ac61-8f7e7d03e012-1
00:18:12.298 --> 00:18:13.000
stitch counting.

4ebaf26f-e3e9-483a-93c6-70a09cca8bec-0
00:18:14.040 --> 00:18:16.280
That's a webinar in itself, to be honest.

46bd4fe7-f59c-4c7c-9a6a-9bb1588cbbce-0
00:18:16.280 --> 00:18:20.974
But I do have a couple of stitch counting
procedures that might help you guys

46bd4fe7-f59c-4c7c-9a6a-9bb1588cbbce-1
00:18:20.974 --> 00:18:25.216
along the way to count the stitches
because that's one of the 1st and most

46bd4fe7-f59c-4c7c-9a6a-9bb1588cbbce-2
00:18:25.216 --> 00:18:26.800
important things that we do.

da067049-5523-4232-93f8-db1beaf621fb-0
00:18:27.560 --> 00:18:31.766
So in the stitch counting procedure,
the first thing you would want to do is

da067049-5523-4232-93f8-db1beaf621fb-1
00:18:31.766 --> 00:18:35.973
lay the garment on a flat surface so that
the fabric is not stretched in any

da067049-5523-4232-93f8-db1beaf621fb-2
00:18:35.973 --> 00:18:36.520
direction.

3e013766-1c71-466c-a236-3b57fd17af4d-0
00:18:37.840 --> 00:18:44.080
You would then identify the fabric,
jersey, rib knit, double knit, etcetera.

c144f381-2190-491a-bed8-fb6d061a5025-0
00:18:45.920 --> 00:18:50.160
This is, this is important to obtain the
proper stitch count.

45767899-56a7-4b13-9be1-2878bd95ac4e-0
00:18:50.960 --> 00:18:54.703
Remember,
rib knit fabrics require that both the

45767899-56a7-4b13-9be1-2878bd95ac4e-1
00:18:54.703 --> 00:18:59.898
plain and the pearl stitches,
hills and valleys are synonymous with

45767899-56a7-4b13-9be1-2878bd95ac4e-2
00:18:59.898 --> 00:19:00.280
that.

93fbe893-abd7-46ef-978c-380e8df05d1b-0
00:19:00.680 --> 00:19:03.760
They're counted,
even though pearl stitches are sometimes

93fbe893-abd7-46ef-978c-380e8df05d1b-1
00:19:03.760 --> 00:19:07.160
obscured by the knit stitches due to the
tension in the fabric.

b6cab4a9-afd4-4bd7-8eb7-46d33c8040b1-0
00:19:07.960 --> 00:19:14.080
And that's for your rib knit.

ba3c3287-7606-4b8a-84b3-991381e2c954-0
00:19:15.480 --> 00:19:21.600
Then you place your pick glass on the
ruler in the center area.

75b48f94-15bd-4207-a074-c42721b4b772-0
00:19:22.000 --> 00:19:27.584
We usually use the center back or the
center chest rather than the cuff,

75b48f94-15bd-4207-a074-c42721b4b772-1
00:19:27.584 --> 00:19:29.880
the waistband or the shoulder.

e9f981ea-7097-4793-8f1c-dcc36c141717-0
00:19:31.200 --> 00:19:34.960
And that's to avoid fabric distortion so
that we can get a good stitch count.

66befcbe-ebc2-4567-b33f-877c3de4c668-0
00:19:37.560 --> 00:19:41.880
You begin counting the stitches or wales
across the fabric in a horizontal direction.

61682a8a-4284-48de-aa6b-0266cc61be51-0
00:19:42.640 --> 00:19:46.160
And if necessary,
you can turn your pick glass and count the

61682a8a-4284-48de-aa6b-0266cc61be51-1
00:19:46.160 --> 00:19:48.800
stitches or courses in the vertical as
well.

87d9f1f4-d92f-4ef3-aa69-3ad75ef27aa7-0
00:19:58.000 --> 00:20:01.400
My next slides are going to show garments
with different garment features.

a29d22cc-0ec3-4757-8543-fde2eb7ecfb2-0
00:20:01.800 --> 00:20:07.934
They're all considered loose fitting and
just some of the samples that we have

a29d22cc-0ec3-4757-8543-fde2eb7ecfb2-1
00:20:07.934 --> 00:20:09.720
received along the way.

64d9fc9b-9dc8-4b22-b94d-562539643d4f-0
00:20:11.920 --> 00:20:14.960
The classification steps for 6106.

6d06ce92-8c61-4edc-9658-e9ebb02491e4-0
00:20:17.560 --> 00:20:23.166
When you have a garment that you feel has
the characteristics of a garment in

6d06ce92-8c61-4edc-9658-e9ebb02491e4-1
00:20:23.166 --> 00:20:23.720
6106.

cfbc8b06-1dec-4a47-b168-63a2f0ce444d-0
00:20:25.880 --> 00:20:31.720
If the garment, the first thing if,
if the garment has pockets below the

cfbc8b06-1dec-4a47-b168-63a2f0ce444d-1
00:20:31.720 --> 00:20:37.640
waist, it could possibly be a jacket,
it could possibly be 6110 cardigan,

cfbc8b06-1dec-4a47-b168-63a2f0ce444d-2
00:20:37.640 --> 00:20:39.880
but it will not be a 6106.

6e02689d-c250-4137-83c4-8add5bcf45db-0
00:20:40.840 --> 00:20:43.587
And at that point,
it would be no need for you to count the

6e02689d-c250-4137-83c4-8add5bcf45db-1
00:20:43.587 --> 00:20:44.000
stitches.

4b1ec41c-0a11-438d-808c-a1e7a9f9cc97-0
00:20:44.480 --> 00:20:46.400
It's totally already ruled out.

38440475-1d32-4c37-ae99-d6a6fe33e696-0
00:20:48.120 --> 00:20:53.726
If the garment has a rib waistband or
other means of tightening at the bottom

38440475-1d32-4c37-ae99-d6a6fe33e696-1
00:20:53.726 --> 00:20:57.680
of the garment, once again,
no need to count stitches.

19847a11-ba69-41c1-b46f-66a5a624163a-0
00:20:58.840 --> 00:21:06.277
It's not a 6106 and likely it could be
6110.61.14 depending upon the features,

19847a11-ba69-41c1-b46f-66a5a624163a-1
00:21:06.277 --> 00:21:08.160
all of the features, 

5a424caf-f048-4689-aff4-f71bfac60e39-0
00:21:09.400 --> 00:21:14.400
I'll say that. The next thing you do now
is count the stitches.

d7eabb0c-adbd-4c1c-a203-d61c6769f06e-0
00:21:14.440 --> 00:21:19.480
Once you've ruled out, OK,
no pockets below the waist, rib,

d7eabb0c-adbd-4c1c-a203-d61c6769f06e-1
00:21:19.480 --> 00:21:20.320
waistband.

6c632a7e-3e35-4824-882f-d9ffa8aa276f-0
00:21:20.320 --> 00:21:21.600
Now we can count stitches.

f736dff5-3ff3-45a3-93a5-097a24dff9c2-0
00:21:22.560 --> 00:21:27.047
If you have less than 10 stitches per
centimeter, this cannot be a shirt, shirt,

f736dff5-3ff3-45a3-93a5-097a24dff9c2-1
00:21:27.047 --> 00:21:30.760
blouse or blouse of heading 6106,
so you can stop there as well.

01548dfd-097c-4076-b658-c6a0001bd129-0
00:21:31.840 --> 00:21:39.840
It's possibly in heading 6109, 6110, 6114,

c1567932-9901-4469-b960-4e7761ca2559-0
00:21:39.840 --> 00:21:44.549
excuse me.
If you have 10 or more stitches then

c1567932-9901-4469-b960-4e7761ca2559-1
00:21:44.549 --> 00:21:49.160
we're in 6106 and now we can go
further.

0877c39e-2c49-48a5-9aa9-e1e86759d3c4-0
00:21:50.240 --> 00:21:53.360
So the stitch count meets, no opening

e8d9ccd9-a59c-4caa-b41a-d38bffe6c559-0
00:21:53.360 --> 00:21:56.760
starting at the neckline, you have a
blouse.

a001fd5a-944f-4531-ac45-faedc05a2021-0
00:21:57.680 --> 00:22:01.720
If the stitch count meets and it's
sleeveless, then it's blouse only,

7fa935ef-21ec-4960-995f-34df5966a939-0
00:22:02.520 --> 00:22:06.320
so you wouldn't have a shirt. If the
stitch count meets

a01f3074-a21a-4d38-8982-601d5c4a032c-0
00:22:06.400 --> 00:22:12.256
loose fitting blouse only, and if the
stitch count meets and you have an

a01f3074-a21a-4d38-8982-601d5c4a032c-1
00:22:12.256 --> 00:22:18.520
opening starting at the neckline,
the garment can either be a blouse or a shirt.

5032c93e-b732-4b1f-a583-f004bbaf0c0d-0
00:22:20.600 --> 00:22:26.039
And if you have the stitch count that
meets, and it has long or short sleeves,

5032c93e-b732-4b1f-a583-f004bbaf0c0d-1
00:22:26.039 --> 00:22:28.480
it can also be a shirt or a blouse.

3f696d4a-0db4-4e84-9a45-6a0bf6ec7c8d-0
00:22:36.580 --> 00:22:41.300
A few more samples for us to just look at
and identify some features.

b37497a7-7c88-4a2d-9902-c2fa58460e3a-0
00:22:41.780 --> 00:22:46.297
And this is just for ease of you guys
knowing what we're looking at,

b37497a7-7c88-4a2d-9902-c2fa58460e3a-1
00:22:46.297 --> 00:22:51.207
what we're considering loose fitting,
what we have to discuss on a regular

b37497a7-7c88-4a2d-9902-c2fa58460e3a-2
00:22:51.207 --> 00:22:51.600
basis.

c71be82b-2206-448e-a016-ebc331a01e79-0
00:22:53.400 --> 00:22:57.160
So this is just a different type,
different style of loose fitting.

85951180-caed-4954-9f3f-cc50df1a6da3-0
00:22:57.480 --> 00:23:01.400
The garment definitely extends from the
shoulders to below the waist.

b62cc96a-1a3d-4867-b7a2-6ac593a995be-0
00:23:02.320 --> 00:23:09.680
It features a v-neckline, it has winged,
it has a winged collar, short hem sleeves.

d542721d-b3b0-44e5-929a-c121bbcbc544-0
00:23:10.560 --> 00:23:14.600
This one has side slits and a straight
hem bottom.

6306b988-d702-4924-b26b-2d60efc11e2c-0
00:23:18.120 --> 00:23:22.261
And I will say more than likely when you
have side slips, side slits,

6306b988-d702-4924-b26b-2d60efc11e2c-1
00:23:22.261 --> 00:23:25.160
more than likely it's going to be loose
fitting.

ca68e68e-c008-4a98-946f-d50dfdab42bf-0
00:23:25.480 --> 00:23:26.320
More than likely.

171d3836-ac48-4a90-982a-4501e606cee8-0
00:23:29.800 --> 00:23:32.600
All right,
this was another garment that we received.

88250d03-602c-4c1d-8963-c76df7c67358-0
00:23:33.360 --> 00:23:34.360
It's sleeveless.

8731a1e7-d8d5-415b-b94b-2200b22b45f3-0
00:23:35.360 --> 00:23:37.640
We consider this to be loose fitting as
well.

e1946feb-6436-4050-acc7-5f6cd17704f6-0
00:23:38.960 --> 00:23:41.320
It extended from the shoulders to below
the waist.

53ec8d6b-983f-4cee-842f-4830ac855770-0
00:23:41.800 --> 00:23:47.639
This one had a stand up collar and it had
a partial front opening,

53ec8d6b-983f-4cee-842f-4830ac855770-1
00:23:47.639 --> 00:23:53.478
a zippered closure, which you really can't
see the zipper open,

53ec8d6b-983f-4cee-842f-4830ac855770-2
00:23:53.478 --> 00:23:59.143
but it had a zippered closure,
had some capping at the armholes,

53ec8d6b-983f-4cee-842f-4830ac855770-3
00:23:59.143 --> 00:24:05.680
curved hem bottom, and a slightly longer
back panel. This is an example,

ae95f9b9-44ff-4d17-be59-f6f54c9ef61a-0
00:24:05.680 --> 00:24:10.564
we have an opening at the neckline,
however it is loose fitting and it is not

ae95f9b9-44ff-4d17-be59-f6f54c9ef61a-1
00:24:10.564 --> 00:24:11.880
a shirt, but a blouse.

0c8cf5e8-6233-4154-b44f-256e33367b8a-0
00:24:16.000 --> 00:24:18.440
Another one we reviewed, and right away
you look at this,

237dfd92-6c4d-4c6f-9d6c-fd10914a174b-0
00:24:18.440 --> 00:24:24.339
this is a standard looking sweatshirt
type garment that in the past would not

237dfd92-6c4d-4c6f-9d6c-fd10914a174b-1
00:24:24.339 --> 00:24:26.760
not even be considered a blouse.

fb27528d-103f-421a-b342-e320d4a8ca5b-0
00:24:27.920 --> 00:24:31.880
We found that it was described as jersey
knit fleece.

4b083596-202d-4d20-baf0-47a68e79802f-0
00:24:32.680 --> 00:24:37.996
It was definitely loose fitting and we
described it as a loose fitting

4b083596-202d-4d20-baf0-47a68e79802f-1
00:24:37.996 --> 00:24:43.912
sweatshirt type garment, just to give a
better description in the ruling, to let

4b083596-202d-4d20-baf0-47a68e79802f-2
00:24:43.912 --> 00:24:50.201
you guys know that these type of garments
if they're loose fitting would fall in 

4b083596-202d-4d20-baf0-47a68e79802f-3
00:24:50.201 --> 00:24:51.400
6106 as well.

8a9c4ac0-bd23-4777-8a3d-975875b28f59-0
00:24:52.920 --> 00:24:55.503
So it again,
it extends from the shoulders to below

8a9c4ac0-bd23-4777-8a3d-975875b28f59-1
00:24:55.503 --> 00:24:56.000
the waist.

8e2b0d77-3f58-42c3-8478-81324b2117a7-0
00:24:56.000 --> 00:24:58.600
It had a rib neckline, long sleeves.

b66367f6-3478-4306-a080-ecb748554ee8-0
00:24:59.040 --> 00:25:04.000
This has elasticized cuff and a straight
hem bottom.

5d9621af-e6ae-4132-8e67-43629600b52c-0
00:25:11.400 --> 00:25:17.760
This one has, short sleeves and
again loose fitting.

0af2aec7-de43-4308-8d79-053cda26af2b-0
00:25:19.560 --> 00:25:24.248
It featured a square neckline with
smocking at the front and a straight hem

0af2aec7-de43-4308-8d79-053cda26af2b-1
00:25:24.248 --> 00:25:24.680
bottom.

8e822210-3e7c-46f7-9057-eef21e4dc250-0
00:25:25.640 --> 00:25:30.916
So once again,
not fitting close to the mannequin. And

8e822210-3e7c-46f7-9057-eef21e4dc250-1
00:25:30.916 --> 00:25:37.560
this one, by description we thought this
might be not loose fitting.

6b9b922f-a4bc-4cde-b56e-0e8f65b0f03e-0
00:25:38.480 --> 00:25:42.760
Once we put it on the form we realized it
definitely was loose fitting.

4d4f3cad-46c0-41c2-8d83-ce895e214dd2-0
00:25:43.120 --> 00:25:47.430
Even though it did have the left side
ruching at the waist,

4d4f3cad-46c0-41c2-8d83-ce895e214dd2-1
00:25:47.430 --> 00:25:50.160
it was still considered loose fitting.

01d2fd72-1619-49ce-b258-b1b5183bf4f4-0
00:25:50.560 --> 00:25:59.680
It didn't cling to the mannequin, and it
had a shirt, a straight rear hem bottom.

c3b306e1-35ec-4f01-94fa-a441bc48ff84-0
00:26:11.920 --> 00:26:15.313
When we received this particular sample
by sight,

c3b306e1-35ec-4f01-94fa-a441bc48ff84-1
00:26:15.313 --> 00:26:20.880
we thought maybe it might not reach the
waist all the way around, and if it didn't

c3b306e1-35ec-4f01-94fa-a441bc48ff84-2
00:26:20.880 --> 00:26:23.120
then it would not be in 6106.

53394563-9d8f-4b04-b547-218afa8c1aae-0
00:26:23.120 --> 00:26:27.231
However,
it did so it was once again considered a

53394563-9d8f-4b04-b547-218afa8c1aae-1
00:26:27.231 --> 00:26:29.040
loose fitting garment.

15e0c3a8-ca94-443c-971b-4d578c5d775a-0
00:26:29.200 --> 00:26:31.560
It extended from the shoulders to below
the waist.

9057d057-cd85-4579-8fd0-4bf1a783da21-0
00:26:31.880 --> 00:26:37.002
It featured a ribbed neckline,
long sleeves and it also had rib knit

9057d057-cd85-4579-8fd0-4bf1a783da21-1
00:26:37.002 --> 00:26:38.400
elasticized cuffs.

c0f42836-154a-4538-8ad4-d7be81291d01-0
00:26:39.560 --> 00:26:50.579
The back had a slightly longer curved
bottom than the front, and clearly it went

c0f42836-154a-4538-8ad4-d7be81291d01-1
00:26:50.579 --> 00:26:55.400
below the waist all the way around.

8636a79e-43ce-4fa9-95f4-56a91bf96611-0
00:27:00.040 --> 00:27:05.793
This is one of my favorites because it
was one that was clearly not loose

8636a79e-43ce-4fa9-95f4-56a91bf96611-1
00:27:05.793 --> 00:27:12.008
fitting and we didn't have many, we did
not have many garments that actually fell

8636a79e-43ce-4fa9-95f4-56a91bf96611-2
00:27:12.008 --> 00:27:15.000
into the category of not loose fitting.

974084db-ebf1-4cdd-878a-d573d94c4d7e-0
00:27:15.760 --> 00:27:21.835
So I didn't, I don't and didn't have a lot
of samples to show you guys of a lot of

974084db-ebf1-4cdd-878a-d573d94c4d7e-1
00:27:21.835 --> 00:27:24.280
the ones that fell out of 6106.

ea728d29-936c-4b98-80a6-6f23a3650f31-0
00:27:30.770 --> 00:27:33.937
OK,
I can take a couple of questions before I

ea728d29-936c-4b98-80a6-6f23a3650f31-1
00:27:33.937 --> 00:27:37.450
just get to.. I'm just going to cover rib
waistband.

ce3590d9-cfef-4f23-98b9-757a30b18bc2-0
00:27:38.250 --> 00:27:40.850
So I'll take a couple of, I'll take some
questions right now.

970c528a-dae6-4029-92bd-6b277735e0ec-0
00:27:40.850 --> 00:27:40.970
OK.

c5e3568e-af0e-4bd4-aa31-d70087c15793-0
00:27:42.640 --> 00:27:45.680
You do have a couple of questions.

4ffefa6a-e2e7-4750-8288-bb8cf5998186-0
00:27:45.680 --> 00:27:51.014
The first question is when will the
apparel terminology be updated to reflect

4ffefa6a-e2e7-4750-8288-bb8cf5998186-1
00:27:51.014 --> 00:27:52.040
Chapter 6104?

72c12a05-f107-4865-9830-75e7c61e8bf0-0
00:27:55.360 --> 00:27:56.120
Good question.

36cc23d5-2e3f-4611-acfa-d90282a0e6b5-0
00:27:56.800 --> 00:27:58.720
Do I have a definitive answer for that?

6a7609eb-e066-4939-a4bc-797f9955327c-0
00:27:58.720 --> 00:28:03.072
No,
I know that it is being worked on and for

6a7609eb-e066-4939-a4bc-797f9955327c-1
00:28:03.072 --> 00:28:10.832
all intents and purposes it's going to fall
in line with the chapter notes that are

6a7609eb-e066-4939-a4bc-797f9955327c-2
00:28:10.832 --> 00:28:11.400
legal.

a9e0a830-2ee0-41d4-8c2b-d502959a874f-0
00:28:12.800 --> 00:28:18.560
So if there's a specific question that
you have in reference to 6106,

a9e0a830-2ee0-41d4-8c2b-d502959a874f-1
00:28:18.560 --> 00:28:21.440
I can answer that for you, or 6110, 6114.

b1693da9-bacf-4ce7-8d0d-3006e701c77d-0
00:28:21.760 --> 00:28:24.200
I don't know the actual date when that's
coming out.

12532848-50ec-4543-a80b-560b2cfe1be4-0
00:28:27.480 --> 00:28:28.560
Laurie asked.. 

968a9645-50cd-40bf-a402-5b46a41e36c2-0
00:28:30.480 --> 00:28:33.640
she's curious why does stitch count matters.

81a4e6ac-6b5c-4501-bcd6-0fd4bd0fe4ab-0
00:28:38.240 --> 00:28:41.960
I think, well,
stitch count always mattered.

287cc6d3-2924-43db-a8b8-84a21eb9b878-0
00:28:42.680 --> 00:28:46.160
I think the issue now is more with the
loose fitting.

59b71bb6-02db-4436-aa7a-5b591c84eafe-0
00:28:48.560 --> 00:28:53.906
That's where we,
I'm not going to say have the problem,

59b71bb6-02db-4436-aa7a-5b591c84eafe-1
00:28:53.906 --> 00:28:58.320
but loose fitting is where we fall out of
6106.

d4d5ef8d-acb6-4670-b23b-346e0c687d2f-0
00:28:58.320 --> 00:28:59.920
So the stitch count always mattered.

316781a9-252c-463c-b863-9f42161fae37-0
00:28:59.920 --> 00:29:03.176
The stitch count was there to determine
whether it was a sweater,

316781a9-252c-463c-b863-9f42161fae37-1
00:29:03.176 --> 00:29:04.360
whether it was a blouse.

a1c41be2-a017-43e2-8620-bf0cfdea2a78-0
00:29:04.840 --> 00:29:06.400
So that was there always.

acfd587c-0522-48a9-b39f-03686d897283-0
00:29:07.920 --> 00:29:14.400
It's the loose fitting that changed the
dynamics of 6106 and 6110.

6238de8b-b06e-4419-aeab-e66e50d88c6a-0
00:29:15.480 --> 00:29:18.586
OK,
let's take one more question before

6238de8b-b06e-4419-aeab-e66e50d88c6a-1
00:29:18.586 --> 00:29:22.160
you're getting back to your webinar. On page
16,

520e004f-cd6c-42c6-b5d6-e99b1c502bb2-0
00:29:23.200 --> 00:29:29.308
someone would like to know when would
that garment be classified under, as a

520e004f-cd6c-42c6-b5d6-e99b1c502bb2-1
00:29:29.308 --> 00:29:31.800
T-shirt, in 6109.. slide 16.

b91973c7-e484-45ff-a423-b5c38bb39609-0
00:29:34.320 --> 00:29:36.880
Oh, this one, this one correct.

f8ad277b-85e8-470e-9f06-79c73b73d048-0
00:29:37.640 --> 00:29:42.641
They would like to know in what situation
it would be considered a T-shirt under 

f8ad277b-85e8-470e-9f06-79c73b73d048-1
00:29:42.641 --> 00:29:42.880
6109.

13d3ac09-7aae-448a-9060-c09a3a7ec3a5-0
00:29:44.800 --> 00:29:49.255
To be honest,
I don't see a situation, I don't see

13d3ac09-7aae-448a-9060-c09a3a7ec3a5-1
00:29:49.255 --> 00:29:52.120
a situation where that would happen.

3c859fb0-2cfa-409e-b546-cf4a72ee6d24-0
00:29:53.640 --> 00:29:57.526
Even if it were a jersey,
I don't see a situation where that would

3c859fb0-2cfa-409e-b546-cf4a72ee6d24-1
00:29:57.526 --> 00:29:59.560
happen because it's loose fitting.

d4fefad9-793c-4360-9dad-1d8bdfa9d2a7-0
00:30:00.560 --> 00:30:07.040
The only way that would go to 6109 is
if it was not loose fitting, and then it

d4fefad9-793c-4360-9dad-1d8bdfa9d2a7-1
00:30:07.040 --> 00:30:10.000
had to meet the parameters of 6109.

8bc444d4-8236-4748-9419-8786e090426c-0
00:30:12.280 --> 00:30:15.080
Fiber, fiber construction,
fabric construction.

e7ded9b1-6b2d-4787-833b-08d6d61bf186-0
00:30:15.080 --> 00:30:21.778
excuse me.
We have not done many 6109 rulings in

e7ded9b1-6b2d-4787-833b-08d6d61bf186-1
00:30:21.778 --> 00:30:24.800
the past several years.

697a04d4-422f-4bf2-84fb-a18abf9c4e56-0
00:30:25.320 --> 00:30:29.800
I could probably count off the top of my
head 5.

846d1241-cf26-40b4-a059-8d5b0db82b80-0
00:30:30.280 --> 00:30:36.649
So what this new note has done, is it's
taking garments out of not only 6110,

846d1241-cf26-40b4-a059-8d5b0db82b80-1
00:30:36.649 --> 00:30:38.800
but out of 6109 as well.

48cda78e-596f-4ec2-882d-5cb19314a9bd-0
00:30:39.480 --> 00:30:42.120
So, they're far and few in between.

696f38eb-f6fa-4458-b838-bef02b2ff46b-0
00:30:42.200 --> 00:30:42.880
I'll say that.

63df422e-613f-4c95-b109-dcfeb3384653-0
00:30:42.880 --> 00:30:46.560
OK, that's all we have.

be4314f9-0326-4a8c-baed-3ebca0d7ae24-0
00:30:47.200 --> 00:30:50.752
Why don't we continue with the webinar,
and then we continue with the other

be4314f9-0326-4a8c-baed-3ebca0d7ae24-1
00:30:50.752 --> 00:30:52.600
questions that are coming in right now.

61218a61-9cda-4881-9ae7-feac309f5381-0
00:30:56.200 --> 00:31:04.715
I wanted to touch on the ribbed waistband,
and clarification of what that might mean

61218a61-9cda-4881-9ae7-feac309f5381-1
00:31:04.715 --> 00:31:07.960
and what that does not mean.

7168fce1-bc18-4d6c-9c25-30322b8992a6-0
00:31:08.240 --> 00:31:11.760
So we're going to look at two
headquarters rulings for clarification.

013f5cfd-3b66-456e-a375-14c978507e3f-0
00:31:16.520 --> 00:31:19.840
First ruling is H334342.

f855c146-bd15-47c9-8794-67abddd06ba9-0
00:31:21.200 --> 00:31:25.787
And according to this ruling,
with regard to the language,

f855c146-bd15-47c9-8794-67abddd06ba9-1
00:31:25.787 --> 00:31:31.619
a ribbed waistband or other means of
tightening at the bottom of the garment,

f855c146-bd15-47c9-8794-67abddd06ba9-2
00:31:31.619 --> 00:31:37.529
we note that the ribbed knit waistband
needs to actually provide a means of

f855c146-bd15-47c9-8794-67abddd06ba9-3
00:31:37.529 --> 00:31:40.640
tightening at the bottom of the garment.

65597428-3f18-4c1f-a3b7-cd9c21ee17ff-0
00:31:41.960 --> 00:31:42.440
OK.

9827ecb6-fcf4-4e12-bd17-789251cdbf7b-0
00:31:43.000 --> 00:31:46.800
So it has to provide a means of
tightening.

fb2def47-3c81-4fc4-a942-2d9abe4d6e78-0
00:31:47.120 --> 00:31:53.706
They went further to reference
HQ ruling H966819 and they got

fb2def47-3c81-4fc4-a942-2d9abe4d6e78-1
00:31:53.706 --> 00:32:01.034
language from that ruling stating that
the ribbed waist band is considered a

fb2def47-3c81-4fc4-a942-2d9abe4d6e78-2
00:32:01.034 --> 00:32:06.878
tightening exemplar,
but also indicating that one would expect

fb2def47-3c81-4fc4-a942-2d9abe4d6e78-3
00:32:06.878 --> 00:32:14.021
that a ribbed waist band would cause the
garment to gather or secure against the

fb2def47-3c81-4fc4-a942-2d9abe4d6e78-4
00:32:14.021 --> 00:32:15.320
wearer's body.

efc41bcc-72a5-45cf-9441-6528d44fa440-0
00:32:25.360 --> 00:32:31.632
They also referenced headquarters ruling
H952707 stating that the tightening

efc41bcc-72a5-45cf-9441-6528d44fa440-1
00:32:31.632 --> 00:32:37.739
described in this particular ruling must
be at the bottom of the garment,

efc41bcc-72a5-45cf-9441-6528d44fa440-2
00:32:37.739 --> 00:32:44.012
regardless of whether it's ribbed knit or
any other type of tightening, such as

efc41bcc-72a5-45cf-9441-6528d44fa440-3
00:32:44.012 --> 00:32:44.920
drawstring.

371a7975-9b11-4d7a-85ec-f5843f043131-0
00:32:45.640 --> 00:32:49.594
So, so for all intents and purposes,
it has to be at the bottom of the of the

371a7975-9b11-4d7a-85ec-f5843f043131-1
00:32:49.594 --> 00:32:50.000
garment.

59578be8-6a88-43cb-ba3e-fdcc5b839962-0
00:32:51.960 --> 00:33:01.426
And they just referenced this ruling to
be consistent. With regard to the example

59578be8-6a88-43cb-ba3e-fdcc5b839962-1
00:33:01.426 --> 00:33:11.360
of other means of tightening, as explained
in headquarters ruling H966819. Button tabs,

085e3949-c0c8-4ba4-b41d-4bcebce34ed2-0
00:33:11.400 --> 00:33:15.533
and this particular ruling had a sample
and it was not knit,

085e3949-c0c8-4ba4-b41d-4bcebce34ed2-1
00:33:15.533 --> 00:33:17.400
but it's for reference only.

790227ff-0eb8-40e6-863d-43bb2079300e-0
00:33:17.760 --> 00:33:23.870
The button tabs did not serve as quote,
unquote and other means of tightening

790227ff-0eb8-40e6-863d-43bb2079300e-1
00:33:23.870 --> 00:33:30.290
because they fail to gather or secure the
garment against the wearer's body as one

790227ff-0eb8-40e6-863d-43bb2079300e-2
00:33:30.290 --> 00:33:32.920
would expect from a ribbed waistband.

57ee147c-0d15-4b0b-9b52-1b49d2ba1721-0
00:33:40.150 --> 00:33:43.077
OK,
this was contrary to any assertion that

57ee147c-0d15-4b0b-9b52-1b49d2ba1721-1
00:33:43.077 --> 00:33:47.270
the button tabs have the same effect of
tightening the fabric.

21e603ef-1c9b-4d31-b23e-4c9789330b9b-0
00:33:47.710 --> 00:33:50.670
There is actually an increase in width at
the bottom of the garment.

89aaf411-f82d-4c99-a9dc-b74303a56e80-0
00:33:51.430 --> 00:33:54.597
So you can have button tabs if there's an
increase in width at the bottom of the

89aaf411-f82d-4c99-a9dc-b74303a56e80-1
00:33:54.597 --> 00:33:54.910
garment.

73dba990-2bd9-42d8-ab73-852baa48e8e9-0
00:33:54.910 --> 00:33:56.310
Is not considered a tightening.

80da2152-9dbe-4d93-8f8e-675d45992493-0
00:34:02.280 --> 00:34:05.680
This was a sample at the Center for
review.

24090c7d-9324-4679-8d13-4fd93759ceb2-0
00:34:06.560 --> 00:34:12.720
A questionable sample.. this this sample
was, this garment was sent to headquarters.

806d6275-4b72-490e-8c66-cbadad5c15c8-0
00:34:12.800 --> 00:34:16.560
Described as a women's knit upper body
pullover style garment.

4da222fe-375e-4de7-a9ef-8e294df460a3-0
00:34:20.200 --> 00:34:24.016
The garment feature the crew neckline,
long sleeves,

4da222fe-375e-4de7-a9ef-8e294df460a3-1
00:34:24.016 --> 00:34:26.320
ribbed cuffs, and a rib knit bottom.

5bc7ad41-d886-4f45-b533-3569bd86b7c0-0
00:34:34.400 --> 00:34:41.273
This particular garment ruled based on
the evaluation of the sample when it was

5bc7ad41-d886-4f45-b533-3569bd86b7c0-1
00:34:41.273 --> 00:34:44.280
draped on a size 10 medium mannequin.

6ebdde2e-46d7-470d-8c2e-03a0a889a732-0
00:34:45.200 --> 00:34:50.393
The ribbed waistband provided a means of
tightening at the bottom of the garment

6ebdde2e-46d7-470d-8c2e-03a0a889a732-1
00:34:50.393 --> 00:34:55.587
because it caused the gathering at the
bottom of the garment on the mannequin's

6ebdde2e-46d7-470d-8c2e-03a0a889a732-2
00:34:55.587 --> 00:34:55.920
body.

2dcca7f8-4965-4752-8144-6da67ea09862-0
00:34:56.840 --> 00:35:01.135
So therefore,
in accordance with the requirements of

2dcca7f8-4965-4752-8144-6da67ea09862-1
00:35:01.135 --> 00:35:06.160
note 4 to Chapter 61,
this garment is not classifiable in 61.

f7974630-8de4-400a-8127-275e80bfe869-0
00:35:06.680 --> 00:35:13.700
Instead, they considered heading 6110,
which provided for sweaters, sweatshirts,

f7974630-8de4-400a-8127-275e80bfe869-1
00:35:13.700 --> 00:35:14.480
etcetera.

65ef6a85-7532-498b-bd08-8ed570c85f50-0
00:35:24.540 --> 00:35:31.089
Another sample that was sent to
headquarters, and this garment was also

65ef6a85-7532-498b-bd08-8ed570c85f50-1
00:35:31.089 --> 00:35:38.007
described as a women's upper body pull
over style garment, and this garment

65ef6a85-7532-498b-bd08-8ed570c85f50-2
00:35:38.007 --> 00:35:44.003
featured a crew neckline,
long sleeves with rib neck cuffs,

65ef6a85-7532-498b-bd08-8ed570c85f50-3
00:35:44.003 --> 00:35:48.800
and a rib knit bottom that reached below
the waist.

d07dae69-5e95-4c40-898c-e22a868bc496-0
00:35:55.970 --> 00:35:59.948
In reviewing this garment and evaluation
of the sample,

d07dae69-5e95-4c40-898c-e22a868bc496-1
00:35:59.948 --> 00:36:03.359
when it was draped on a size 10 medium
mannequin,

d07dae69-5e95-4c40-898c-e22a868bc496-2
00:36:03.359 --> 00:36:06.770
there was no means of tightening at the
bottom.

b89212e8-923e-434d-ad3b-84e652f8af05-0
00:36:08.880 --> 00:36:13.923
And because of this,
regardless of whether it was a ribbed

b89212e8-923e-434d-ad3b-84e652f8af05-1
00:36:13.923 --> 00:36:19.327
waistband or not,
the bottom of the garment fit loosely, and

b89212e8-923e-434d-ad3b-84e652f8af05-2
00:36:19.327 --> 00:36:22.119
it extended away from the body,

9135a9e4-2569-4ef0-905b-fa60d832175f-0
00:36:22.680 --> 00:36:27.000
from the mannequin, it extended away so
there was no tightening,

9135a9e4-2569-4ef0-905b-fa60d832175f-1
00:36:27.000 --> 00:36:29.440
though it did have a ribbed waistband.

b568fae6-407b-47bd-843e-8675a57ebb63-0
00:36:39.200 --> 00:36:45.834
And this is the last sample that was
sent up in reference to the previous

b568fae6-407b-47bd-843e-8675a57ebb63-1
00:36:45.834 --> 00:36:52.044
rulings. Headquarters described this
one again as a women's upper body

b568fae6-407b-47bd-843e-8675a57ebb63-2
00:36:52.044 --> 00:36:58.849
pullover style garment and the garment
extended from the shoulders to below the

b568fae6-407b-47bd-843e-8675a57ebb63-3
00:36:58.849 --> 00:36:59.360
waist.

a756e3d1-9719-4867-96fe-826b5c3865bd-0
00:36:59.840 --> 00:37:06.119
It featured a ribbed knit crew neckline,
rib knit cuffs,

a756e3d1-9719-4867-96fe-826b5c3865bd-1
00:37:06.119 --> 00:37:14.840
side seam slits, and what we consider was
a non tightening rib knit bottom.

d3fe6006-796b-474f-9eff-0071ee3d5306-0
00:37:16.720 --> 00:37:22.221
So therefore in accordance with No 4
to Chapter 61,

d3fe6006-796b-474f-9eff-0071ee3d5306-1
00:37:22.221 --> 00:37:25.600
this was not precluded from 6106.

589fe8f9-689d-4c00-baec-dcf79d980d7d-0
00:37:30.360 --> 00:37:37.109
And once again,
based on it being on the size ten form

589fe8f9-689d-4c00-baec-dcf79d980d7d-1
00:37:37.109 --> 00:37:43.736
side slits,
this was not considered tightening and it

589fe8f9-689d-4c00-baec-dcf79d980d7d-2
00:37:43.736 --> 00:37:50.240
was not precluded from classification in
6106.

a46e7b01-28d6-48cb-92d7-2e0a2086c481-0
00:37:51.200 --> 00:37:58.760
So these were a few of the garments that
we sent up for clarification of the rib

a46e7b01-28d6-48cb-92d7-2e0a2086c481-1
00:37:58.760 --> 00:38:02.960
knit bottom and tightening at the
bottom.

fe9647c2-dcbf-4529-995d-f6e11a986e43-0
00:38:04.200 --> 00:38:09.496
So I will take a few questions in
reference to this one as well, these samples

fe9647c2-dcbf-4529-995d-f6e11a986e43-1
00:38:09.496 --> 00:38:10.960
or the previous ones.

4e25e02b-9801-40e2-a451-f7728fe8b8b4-0
00:38:12.520 --> 00:38:15.995
OK,
what if the garment has elastic that

4e25e02b-9801-40e2-a451-f7728fe8b8b4-1
00:38:15.995 --> 00:38:21.760
fully tightens at the waist but then
flares out again at the bottom?

7aa3b329-e79f-40d9-9fe9-bc99973e1704-0
00:38:21.960 --> 00:38:23.720
Would that be considered loose fitting?

1bd0146d-200e-459b-996d-a4d7d39d28c9-0
00:38:29.160 --> 00:38:33.574
Off the top of my head, I would say yes,
but I would need to take a look at it,

1bd0146d-200e-459b-996d-a4d7d39d28c9-1
00:38:33.574 --> 00:38:36.320
to really, I would have to take a look at
that one.

ea4204f7-84a8-41b1-b9ea-22328e3e1088-0
00:38:40.360 --> 00:38:42.920
We've not had one like that before.

68214d24-5bf2-4309-8a32-6e3c6468fb48-0
00:38:44.840 --> 00:38:49.222
We thought maybe that ruching might give
us a problem, but when we got it,

68214d24-5bf2-4309-8a32-6e3c6468fb48-1
00:38:49.222 --> 00:38:52.320
we looked at it and it was loose fitting
throughout.

4aa37d82-5d0f-445c-9a62-309b73e50e56-0
00:38:53.000 --> 00:38:57.320
So I want to say off the top of my head
that would, I'm visualizing it in my head.

5cc8d525-d29e-4183-b39c-1c326a3614e1-0
00:38:57.320 --> 00:38:58.720
It would probably be loose fitting.

47b5bcff-3713-4fec-ada5-53f430e9f90a-0
00:38:59.160 --> 00:39:01.945
But if you came across that type of
garment,

47b5bcff-3713-4fec-ada5-53f430e9f90a-1
00:39:01.945 --> 00:39:05.535
I don't know if this is a trade question
or CBP question,

47b5bcff-3713-4fec-ada5-53f430e9f90a-2
00:39:05.535 --> 00:39:10.240
a ruling and or QUICS would be the best
way for me to answer that for you.

c736e882-73e4-4bd3-bc60-c6b4a906edfc-0
00:39:12.400 --> 00:39:20.682
OK, so if something is not loose fitting,
would it be a pullover under 6110 rather

c736e882-73e4-4bd3-bc60-c6b4a906edfc-1
00:39:20.682 --> 00:39:21.880
than 6106?

03ea15d6-3f4e-4a09-be50-cf150238a6d6-0
00:39:23.880 --> 00:39:24.240
Yes.

ee713f05-8cae-4860-bd59-f0d9521ade5f-0
00:39:26.440 --> 00:39:26.680
OK.

7cdee852-ba1e-46ba-a984-812d2279d65d-0
00:39:27.920 --> 00:39:32.792
When I say, when you say yes,
it would be a pullover in 6110,

7cdee852-ba1e-46ba-a984-812d2279d65d-1
00:39:32.792 --> 00:39:37.440
providing that it met the
specifications for that as well.

10de119d-fb4b-4b7f-97bc-15fe5f2bd23c-0
00:39:38.080 --> 00:39:38.640
Yes.

c118912e-be2a-4352-947d-e968ca8f697a-0
00:39:39.960 --> 00:39:41.120
OK, thank you.

20e84ec1-eff2-4fee-be14-62eb1973dbcd-0
00:39:42.120 --> 00:39:44.000
Can you go back to slide 26?

a5e77b1f-ed14-4fe6-a45a-60de860e889c-0
00:39:48.840 --> 00:39:49.280
Yes, ma'am.

4894e388-6a02-4b2a-8ea4-dd25dc400bbe-0
00:39:50.960 --> 00:39:53.220
This person would like to know can this
be a T-shirt?

a2ef0c1f-d334-4f66-93ab-e056e68af59d-0
00:40:00.040 --> 00:40:01.280
I don't have the..

8216f9ec-475b-43de-a646-38db73cc9718-0
00:40:04.640 --> 00:40:07.360
garment fabric construction.

e0395d98-5105-42df-b371-1d6c6e0c4a3a-0
00:40:07.480 --> 00:40:13.658
I want to think that it did not meet the
fabric construction for a t-shirt. At the

e0395d98-5105-42df-b371-1d6c6e0c4a3a-1
00:40:13.658 --> 00:40:14.040
time, 

69fa95fc-8493-4ccf-a947-bfc5ee6084b3-0
00:40:14.920 --> 00:40:20.360
this was 6110, done by Renee, and I don't
have the fabric construction.

e5db540d-92ca-4484-af35-386be9a8b780-0
00:40:20.360 --> 00:40:24.598
It was just I,
I put in here just to show you what a not

e5db540d-92ca-4484-af35-386be9a8b780-1
00:40:24.598 --> 00:40:26.680
loose fitting garment would be.

1c43aa7d-837b-47b9-a716-7279a9f063b5-0
00:40:27.160 --> 00:40:32.197
But I want to say that it did not have
the fabric construction for a T-shirt

1c43aa7d-837b-47b9-a716-7279a9f063b5-1
00:40:32.197 --> 00:40:35.120
or otherwise that's where we would have
put it.

c62f2a33-752f-49a2-ab49-4a327e2d6887-0
00:40:36.480 --> 00:40:47.989
OK,
Thank you for slide 35, with this, one more

c62f2a33-752f-49a2-ab49-4a327e2d6887-1
00:40:47.989 --> 00:40:49.240
back.

bb339041-1525-4a31-be4b-b20947fa101b-0
00:40:51.760 --> 00:40:52.160
Thank you.

6627854d-f07f-4a64-89f5-949ffc536f10-0
00:40:52.680 --> 00:41:00.640
Would this be considered 6106 or 6110
garment? The.. 6106.

26743125-e241-4026-a6a4-44e48881f2c4-0
00:41:01.560 --> 00:41:04.000
OK, thank you.

bf091c34-2159-4f6d-b687-5ce031f4543b-0
00:41:04.000 --> 00:41:11.926
I think it's a misconception that we
used to think as soon as it had a rib knit

bf091c34-2159-4f6d-b687-5ce031f4543b-1
00:41:11.926 --> 00:41:16.781
bottom,
it was considered, and it has to actually,

bf091c34-2159-4f6d-b687-5ce031f4543b-2
00:41:16.781 --> 00:41:24.906
the rib knit bottom by itself
does not constitute it taking it out of

bf091c34-2159-4f6d-b687-5ce031f4543b-3
00:41:24.906 --> 00:41:25.600
6106.

4f2e4263-8f6b-40b4-aa8f-4f578e1e869a-0
00:41:26.960 --> 00:41:33.001
So it has to have the means of tightening,
so it can have a rib knit bottom and

4f2e4263-8f6b-40b4-aa8f-4f578e1e869a-1
00:41:33.001 --> 00:41:34.120
still be loose.

aabde932-8494-49e0-a1f6-9162a80e304d-0
00:41:36.840 --> 00:41:38.040
OK, thank you.

58b40f5c-02c0-4ba6-88bf-78620af23c9e-0
00:41:40.280 --> 00:41:42.200
One slide over to 36 please.

7e12a2b8-fdd3-450d-a1b4-9ab85d249ff2-0
00:41:45.600 --> 00:41:47.720
This one? 36, next one, 

3a6ed186-d2ea-433f-bc8d-c2248f7723db-0
00:41:48.000 --> 00:41:50.840
thank you. For the tight..

6bf0603b-828d-4b1f-b871-4075183f3ff0-0
00:41:52.040 --> 00:41:57.920
was this garment under 6109 or 
6110?

91d83be7-4674-4c97-987e-f0606264304d-0
00:41:58.840 --> 00:42:05.960
This one is 61.. neither - this is 6106.

954e305e-9fd9-4f82-957d-f2a08f84d8fc-0
00:42:06.000 --> 00:42:07.080
It's not precluded.

c6d78343-7156-489d-934f-40069d3dad52-0
00:42:08.000 --> 00:42:10.680
It would not be precluded from 6106.

c6f1e55d-210f-4493-8431-d928f3767117-0
00:42:11.440 --> 00:42:17.246
It's similar to the other one where it
does have a rib knit at the bottom but

c6f1e55d-210f-4493-8431-d928f3767117-1
00:42:17.246 --> 00:42:22.160
because it's not tight fitting so it
does it, it precludes it.

39c4aa34-d108-409f-aa02-b5d81005dc32-0
00:42:22.160 --> 00:42:23.440
It was a 6106.

8ff70884-5193-415b-b4de-825e670a38bf-0
00:42:23.440 --> 00:42:25.920
It didn't even come out of 6106.

37bb9b4f-be68-43d1-9ae7-9f1df74ad6e8-0
00:42:31.320 --> 00:42:35.654
OK,
this one someone asked, Robert asked, if a

37bb9b4f-be68-43d1-9ae7-9f1df74ad6e8-1
00:42:35.654 --> 00:42:43.262
non loose fitting upper garment with a
collar and an opening at the neckline but

37bb9b4f-be68-43d1-9ae7-9f1df74ad6e8-2
00:42:43.262 --> 00:42:48.560
is not loose fitting,
can it go under 6106 as a blouse?

5f0127e0-d582-480f-8498-4ea0cc01c9f4-0
00:42:51.360 --> 00:42:53.880
Let me go to one that we had in the
beginning.

9af8e652-36b5-494a-bed4-4732b1267859-0
00:42:55.960 --> 00:43:09.430
They wanted to know if this would be
considered a blouse.. blouse, shirt -

c95ca8cc-cf7c-4454-b4fb-7f7a2ac66243-0
00:43:10.830 --> 00:43:14.350
the only difference is the fuller partial
opening and starting at the neckline.

0fceef4a-6465-4c65-85b0-a7a1e9189d62-0
00:43:16.110 --> 00:43:19.270
So, we would say shirt.

25e96ca3-5fa1-40fd-8351-8d677c9f4cd2-0
00:43:20.430 --> 00:43:21.630
I would say shirt to that.

eedc922d-d998-4c65-b497-1ae25dc8de25-0
00:43:28.640 --> 00:43:33.272
Ok,
still 6106, in other words.. it would still

eedc922d-d998-4c65-b497-1ae25dc8de25-1
00:43:33.272 --> 00:43:34.280
be 6106.

53f298fc-13d7-4df4-91c0-fdebce5b30ad-0
00:43:38.120 --> 00:43:40.080
OK thank you.

4197df49-69a1-4c08-98d2-c53bcbc7e3ca-0
00:43:42.920 --> 00:43:44.880
Can you go back to slide 36 again?

a07aa20b-5689-409d-bc32-469a7b1cf946-0
00:43:45.960 --> 00:43:51.552
Someone just ask if it has 10 stitches
per 2cm,

a07aa20b-5689-409d-bc32-469a7b1cf946-1
00:43:51.552 --> 00:43:57.960
will it be under 6110 even if it's
loose fitting?

0a2057ad-3198-4e81-b65b-db6d4dfe62a0-0
00:44:02.720 --> 00:44:10.262
Repeat that? If it has 10 stitches per 2cm,
would it be considered 6110 even if it's

0a2057ad-3198-4e81-b65b-db6d4dfe62a0-1
00:44:10.262 --> 00:44:11.520
loose fitting?

2687dc74-0e7c-467a-aa5e-c36422adb409-0
00:44:12.920 --> 00:44:17.042
Well, before we could get to 6110,
we would have to say that it's at

2687dc74-0e7c-467a-aa5e-c36422adb409-1
00:44:17.042 --> 00:44:20.330
least 10 or more stitches,
stitches per linear centimeter,

2687dc74-0e7c-467a-aa5e-c36422adb409-2
00:44:20.330 --> 00:44:23.840
in both directions,
which would make it a 6106.

31cbf864-e5ba-48a0-99e1-126a52d55974-0
00:44:25.040 --> 00:44:26.200
OK, thank you.

525eec2d-699a-4991-a74b-989e0fecbdc7-0
00:44:27.200 --> 00:44:30.120
So for that one, that's what would
happen first.

4979ba8e-3176-4753-ad3e-6c16fd497857-0
00:44:33.680 --> 00:44:34.120
OK.

d2c550a5-8f9c-4831-866d-66af48d2f736-0
00:44:34.800 --> 00:44:44.120
Is the polo considered a blouse under 6106?
Is a what?

ab3c27fb-36a9-4480-8143-3e1e2c4239f7-0
00:44:44.520 --> 00:44:47.840
A polo, polo?

774865ac-df35-40a2-b1f7-d9f1c6ef9c94-0
00:44:50.560 --> 00:44:59.040
I'm not sure exactly what.. are they
saying pullover or.. ? Polo, polo.

e9bf531f-1918-4a4c-a754-f36a838c3efe-0
00:45:00.360 --> 00:45:04.324
I guess that's a type of blouse,
but we would still have to look at the

e9bf531f-1918-4a4c-a754-f36a838c3efe-1
00:45:04.324 --> 00:45:04.800
features.

82c5094b-9d6d-4567-9e3e-341150da0acb-0
00:45:10.000 --> 00:45:11.360
That question kind of confused me.

dba56c0b-2d21-488d-872e-e0af53098ecc-0
00:45:13.920 --> 00:45:18.004
I don't know if they're describing the
blouse as a polo, but it would still,

dba56c0b-2d21-488d-872e-e0af53098ecc-1
00:45:18.004 --> 00:45:22.248
we would still have to put it on the form
and look at the features to determine

dba56c0b-2d21-488d-872e-e0af53098ecc-2
00:45:22.248 --> 00:45:23.840
whether it was 6106 or 6110.

9f20381b-e5a1-4d0c-b71c-d501b548ec3e-0
00:45:25.120 --> 00:45:35.550
OK. Ok, 

ddaa1429-70c2-4e8b-a853-17adafd4b0e4-0
00:45:35.550 --> 00:45:38.910
somebody says polo type blouse was in the
same slide as orange blouse.

49339614-7508-43b3-bdb3-8d686e7d4d9b-0
00:45:39.150 --> 00:45:43.950
OK, If that's the case,
then let me go to that.

1e050841-2619-4f31-89fe-db7ff32a2d9d-0
00:45:43.950 --> 00:45:46.190
This is the slide he's speaking about?

c578c26f-f521-4bee-bf36-2e62b76cdf9f-0
00:45:46.470 --> 00:45:51.400
Yeah, that's 6106.

5c922750-5dca-412c-88ba-c277b1ef672a-0
00:45:53.440 --> 00:45:53.960
Thank you.

a341f5dd-b57f-4f04-8b75-3cb4ca3c65bf-0
00:45:58.040 --> 00:46:01.726
And then slide 32,
they want to know whether is that

a341f5dd-b57f-4f04-8b75-3cb4ca3c65bf-1
00:46:01.726 --> 00:46:02.840
considered 6110?

04cab61f-341c-419d-8a84-9061595186d4-0
00:46:14.970 --> 00:46:17.570
Yes, this is where we went with that one.

43e95d12-4805-4825-9782-6dd9f8e130f4-0
00:46:21.090 --> 00:46:23.610
This was a 6110, this particular garment.

428a48e8-1f19-486b-a44d-dbd97942c0d5-0
00:46:32.560 --> 00:46:33.280
Oh, all right.

09dceda1-7b1a-4569-a132-b30371a05d0d-0
00:46:33.280 --> 00:46:34.440
I see what the person is talking about.

3d977e19-cbb2-424a-a707-63cf5fe63c82-0
00:46:34.440 --> 00:46:37.360
The button up polo-type in the beginning
that was 6106.

d6c23628-890e-4efb-8c41-76c46b56f502-0
00:46:38.160 --> 00:46:45.222
OK, I saw that in the chat,
the black garment with the three button

d6c23628-890e-4efb-8c41-76c46b56f502-1
00:46:45.222 --> 00:46:50.000
closure is 6106 and that was that was a
shirt.

32cb75e5-e6f7-4677-a937-68ddaf4a949a-0
00:46:50.920 --> 00:46:59.560
We considered that a shirt in 6106.
For 6106 won't the blouse need to have

32cb75e5-e6f7-4677-a937-68ddaf4a949a-1
00:46:59.560 --> 00:47:03.720
an opening with buttons and or zippers?

50545cff-30e9-40f5-a9cf-7a70a92281a0-0
00:47:13.380 --> 00:47:17.060
Let me let me clear that up. 6106..

d8b65ac1-cfb8-4e6a-85be-590788b5cb52-0
00:47:20.180 --> 00:47:22.900
these are the characteristics for shirt
and shirt blouses.

bcbc3a08-f190-4834-bf44-11393759a7c1-0
00:47:24.500 --> 00:47:29.020
The only difference, technically, it's
going to be the same classifications.

a450932f-c3c7-48c8-aea8-145ecb726857-0
00:47:29.020 --> 00:47:33.522
There's no breakout,
but if I'm looking at a garment and I

a450932f-c3c7-48c8-aea8-145ecb726857-1
00:47:33.522 --> 00:47:37.185
want to say, oh,
is this, is if this is a shirt,

a450932f-c3c7-48c8-aea8-145ecb726857-2
00:47:37.185 --> 00:47:42.833
the guidelines way back when considered
shirts as being a little bit more

a450932f-c3c7-48c8-aea8-145ecb726857-3
00:47:42.833 --> 00:47:43.520
tailored.

94a3769e-5321-45ef-a29f-0cf777bfe8a2-0
00:47:44.400 --> 00:47:49.832
That would be the only difference in
saying it's a shirt as opposed to like a

94a3769e-5321-45ef-a29f-0cf777bfe8a2-1
00:47:49.832 --> 00:47:50.320
blouse.

934858c1-e1fa-4970-a487-6274856a98ab-0
00:47:51.920 --> 00:47:58.280
If you want to look at the form, and
shirts are not sleeveless, 

ee9aeabf-872c-4cc5-b267-171dfd9df1da-0
00:47:58.440 --> 00:48:02.545
so.. that would take that and bring this
one to here,

ee9aeabf-872c-4cc5-b267-171dfd9df1da-1
00:48:02.545 --> 00:48:09.098
which would be a blouse because it looks
very similar to this one except this long

ee9aeabf-872c-4cc5-b267-171dfd9df1da-2
00:48:09.098 --> 00:48:13.520
sleeve, short sleeves,
and then this one is sleeveless.

7d48bdae-0c64-4e3a-8c26-569d9b0392fd-0
00:48:23.150 --> 00:48:26.750
Do we have any more Fung? So far,

358159a7-c7b8-4f85-ac49-038b897f3230-0
00:48:26.750 --> 00:48:27.190
that's it.

36596c2b-2af1-46d0-ab49-206be8b7dc7a-0
00:48:27.190 --> 00:48:29.230
I think there might be more coming.

4c9760ac-6a2a-40ec-8efe-a96298ec2fb8-0
00:48:32.710 --> 00:48:39.351
OK, another one came in. If a woman,
if a woman's sweatshirt has loose fitting

4c9760ac-6a2a-40ec-8efe-a96298ec2fb8-1
00:48:39.351 --> 00:48:45.992
ribbed waistband, but the waistband has a
drawstring that the consumer could pull

4c9760ac-6a2a-40ec-8efe-a96298ec2fb8-2
00:48:45.992 --> 00:48:50.080
tight and clinch it, only if they want
it different,

c7b80fd7-9529-4f0f-98e7-ffa8f49fd6c3-0
00:48:50.080 --> 00:48:53.640
could that be loose fitting, and would it
be under 6106?

16b08694-0631-4c4c-9e57-e73672405d9b-0
00:48:57.120 --> 00:49:04.724
I would have to see that one, because you're
saying it has a ribbed waistband, it's loose,

16b08694-0631-4c4c-9e57-e73672405d9b-1
00:49:04.724 --> 00:49:09.488
but then it has a tie also that
users could tie,

16b08694-0631-4c4c-9e57-e73672405d9b-2
00:49:09.488 --> 00:49:16.360
I would need to see what that looked like
on the form, on the mannequin itself.

f724ff42-3e3f-4152-91c8-be339fc4bb89-0
00:49:18.560 --> 00:49:26.848
I don't think that that would go into a
6110, but I need to see it,

f724ff42-3e3f-4152-91c8-be339fc4bb89-1
00:49:26.848 --> 00:49:28.920
put my eyes on it.

f850ec72-4063-4302-8fb5-5ed455a80e96-0
00:49:28.920 --> 00:49:29.040
OK.

d2019276-e7c5-4860-8be6-56da8c455748-0
00:49:36.320 --> 00:49:48.744
Girl sizes..  And for slide 33, they would
like to know is that considered 6106 or

d2019276-e7c5-4860-8be6-56da8c455748-1
00:49:48.744 --> 00:49:54.880
6110.. 33, the next one same garment is 61.

a7c9991d-ffd3-4faf-98dc-a1e7d356be78-0
00:49:55.480 --> 00:49:56.280
This is the same.

2b46843e-f4d3-4995-a212-2b7a9692a0d8-0
00:49:56.440 --> 00:50:00.120
I was just showing a different picture to
kind of show, how it how it.

52b85701-caf5-4ac0-8cb8-b2e1837515db-0
00:50:02.960 --> 00:50:07.120
So this is the same garment and it's 6110.

e042c87f-ccbf-4563-8474-eb857d329dac-0
00:50:11.320 --> 00:50:14.680
Someone is asking about the girls
mannequin.

a5bde9d2-2368-406f-b46d-ae8154881691-0
00:50:15.800 --> 00:50:20.640
I don't think you handle girls garment,
am I correct?

96b58375-8099-4cc3-a1eb-86e6bdf16a18-0
00:50:21.760 --> 00:50:23.320
Katherine Souffront handles girl..

295a4fc5-3dec-4bdd-a016-2bc74cd278c9-0
00:50:23.320 --> 00:50:24.360
what was the question?

bc7a705e-dd53-4584-844d-e91f04a8e62f-0
00:50:25.080 --> 00:50:27.488
They would like to know for the girl
sizes,

bc7a705e-dd53-4584-844d-e91f04a8e62f-1
00:50:27.488 --> 00:50:30.280
what mannequin size would you would they
be using?

5cb63c96-8fce-4805-9443-0f4e62641fac-0
00:50:30.880 --> 00:50:32.080
I can't speak to that.

f84500e2-9483-424d-a2df-bf9933df1603-0
00:50:34.240 --> 00:50:35.720
That would be Katherine Souffront.

ba96d311-6360-446c-8287-9db8c82078e2-0
00:50:36.120 --> 00:50:37.760
I'm not sure what sizes.

03be5b71-238f-433d-8567-17970ea8823d-0
00:50:43.470 --> 00:50:46.968
I don't know what size mannequins,
if they have a size medium that fits the

03be5b71-238f-433d-8567-17970ea8823d-1
00:50:46.968 --> 00:50:47.630
girls as well.

5d814c63-8d6f-44bb-a6ba-ec9f467c1b2a-0
00:50:47.630 --> 00:50:49.310
OK, thank you.

f7381c44-a664-4dee-8839-314e8792f5ec-0
00:50:49.750 --> 00:50:52.070
I think that's all the question we have
for now.

4fdcf442-226d-4390-a847-8998826e4fae-0
00:50:54.150 --> 00:50:57.862
