CBLEClassification: Goods Across the Tariff

Knitted winter gloves are made of 100 percent acrylic yarn, with no fourchettes between the fingers. They are general cold-weather gloves, not specially designed for skiing or any other sport. Which ONE of the following is the correct classification?

A 6216.00.3800
B 6116.93.0800
C 6116.93.8800
D 6116.93.9400

Show the answer and explanation

Answer: C. 6116.93.8800

The gloves belong in 6116.93.8800. Heading 6116 covers knitted gloves, and acrylic is a synthetic fiber, giving subheading 6116.93. Within it, 6116.93.08 is for gloves specially designed for sports, which these are not; the wool-content lines do not apply; and the remaining 'Other' lines split by construction: without fourchettes (6116.93.88) or with fourchettes (6116.93.94). Heading 6216 covers gloves that are not knitted or crocheted. Source: HTSUS (2026 Basic Edition, as at 12 Oct 2026): heading 6116, subheading 6116.93.88; heading 6216.

Common mistake

Overlooking the fourchette split or treating cold-weather gloves as sports gloves.
