This heading covers only men's or boys' knitted or crocheted suits and ensembles, jackets, blazers, trousers, breeches and shorts (other than swimwear) and bib and brace overalls. (A) In accordance with Note 3 (a) to this Chapter, it should be noted that: (a) the "suit coat or jacket", designed to cover the upper part of the body, is an article with a full front opening, without a closure or with a closure other than a slide fastener. It does not extend below mid-thigh and is not worn over another coat, jacket or blazer; (b) the "panels" (at least two at the front and two at the back) making up the outer shell of the suit coat or jacket must be sewn together lengthwise. For this purpose the term "panels" does not include sleeves, facings or a collar, if any; (c) a "tailored waistcoat", whose front is made of the same fabric as the outer shell of the other components of the set and whose back is made of the same fabric as the lining of the suit coat or jacket, may also be included in the set. All the components of a suit must be made of fabric of the same construction, colour and composition; they must also be of the same style and of corresponding or compatible size. However, these components may have piping (a strip of fabric sewn into the seam) in a different fabric. If several separate garments designed to cover the lower part of the body are presented together (e.g., two pairs of trousers, or a pair of trousers and shorts), one pair of trousers is to be regarded as part of the suit and the other garment is to be considered separately. In Note 3 (a) to this Chapter, the term "identical fabric" means identical material, that is, material which must be: – of the same construction, i.e., it must be obtained by the same knitting technique (same stitch size), and the structure and parameters (linear density in tex) of the yarns must also be the same; – of the same colour (even the same shade and pattern); this applies to fabrics of yarns of different colours and to printed fabrics; – of the same composition, i.e., the percentage of the textile materials must be the same (e.g., 100 % by weight of wool, 51 % by weight of synthetic fibres, 49 % by weight of cotton fibres). (B) The term "men's or boys' ensemble" means a set of garments (other than suits and articles of heading 6107, 6108 or 6109), comprising several pieces made up in identical fabric, put up for retail sale, and comprising: – one garment designed to cover the upper part of the body, with the exception of pullovers, which may form a second upper garment in the case of twin sets, and of waistcoats, which may also form a second upper garment; and – one or two different garments designed to cover the lower part of the body and consisting of trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches or shorts (other than swimwear). All the components of an ensemble must be of fabric of the same construction, style, colour and composition; they must also be of corresponding or compatible size. The term

"ensemble" does not apply to track suits or ski suits of heading 6112 (see Note 3 (b) to this Chapter). In addition: (C) Furthermore, the "jackets or blazers" of this heading have the same characteristics as the suit coats and jackets described in (A) above and in Note 3 (a) to this Chapter, except that the outer shell (excluding sleeves, facings and collar, if any) may consist of three or more panels (of which two are at the front) sewn together lengthwise. This heading does not, however, cover anoraks, wind-cheaters, ski-jackets and similar garments of heading 6101 or 6102. (D) "Trousers" means a garment covering the lower part of the body, enveloping each leg separately and covering the knees; trousers usually reach down to the ankles or below and up to the waist; the presence of braces does not alter the essential character of trousers. (E) "Bib and brace overalls". The term applies to the garments illustrated in Figs. 1 to 5 and to similar garments which do not cover the knees.

(a) The term ‘suit’ means a set of garments composed of two or three pieces made up, in respect of their outer surface, in identical fabric and comprising: — one suit coat or jacket the outer shell of which, exclusive of sleeves, consists of four or more panels, designed to cover the upper part of the body, possibly with a tailored waistcoat in addition whose front is made from the same fabric as the outer surface of the other components of the set and whose back is made from the same fabric as the lining of the suit coat or jacket, and — one garment designed to cover the lower part of the body and consisting of trousers, breeches or shorts (other than swimwear), a skirt or a divided skirt, having neither braces nor bibs. All of the components of a ‘suit’ must be of the same fabric construction, colour and composition; they must also be of the same style and of corresponding or compatible size. However, these components may have piping (a strip of fabric sewn into the seam) in a different fabric. If several separate components to cover the lower part of the body are presented together (for example, two pairs of trousers or trousers and shorts, or a skirt or divided skirt and trousers), the constituent lower part shall be one pair of trousers or, in the case of women's or girls' suits, the skirt or divided skirt, the other garments being considered separately. The term ‘suit’ includes the following sets of garments, whether or not they fulfil all the above conditions: — morning dress, comprising a plain jacket (cutaway) with rounded tails hanging well down at the back and striped trousers, — evening dress (tailcoat), generally made of black fabric, the jacket of which is relatively short at the front, does not close and has narrow skirts cut in at the hips and hanging down behind, — dinner jacket suits, in which the jacket is similar in style to an ordinary jacket (though perhaps revealing more of the shirt-front), but has shiny silk or imitation silk lapels.

(b) The term ‘ensemble’ means a set of garments (other than suits and articles of heading 6107, 6108 or 6109), composed of several pieces made up in identical fabric, put up for retail sale, and comprising: — one garment designed to cover the upper part of the body, with the exception of pullovers which may form a second upper garment in the sole context of twin sets, and of waistcoats which may also form a second upper garment, and — one or two different garments, designed to cover the lower part of the body and consisting of trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches, shorts (other than swimwear), a skirt or a divided skirt. All of the components of an ensemble must be of the same fabric construction, style, colour and composition; they also must be of corresponding or compatible size. The term ‘ensemble’ does not apply to tracksuits or ski suits, of heading 6112.

(a) a ‘ski overall’, that is, a one-piece garment designed to cover the upper and the lower parts of the body; in addition to sleeves and a collar, the ski overall may have pockets or footstraps; or

(b) a ‘ski ensemble’, that is, a set of garments composed of two or three pieces, put up for retail sale and comprising: — one garment such as an anorak, windcheater, wind-jacket or similar article, closed by a slide fastener (zipper), possibly with a waistcoat in addition, and — one pair of trousers, whether or not extending above waist level, one pair of breeches or one bib and brace overall. The ‘ski ensemble’ may also consist of an overall similar to the one mentioned in paragraph (a) above and a type of padded, sleeveless jacket worn over the overall. All the components of a ‘ski ensemble’ must be made up in a fabric of the same texture, style and composition whether or not of the same colour; they also must be of corresponding or compatible size.

8. Garments which are prima facie classifiable both in heading 6113 and in other headings of this chapter, excluding heading 6111, are to be classified in heading 6113.

1. For the use of Note 3(b) to this Chapter, the components of the kit must be made entirely of one material, provided that the other requirements in that note are met.

For this purpose:

- the cloth used can be unbleached, bleached, painted, of yarn of various colors or printed;

- a pullover or a rubber jacket, provided that the rubber band is not sewn, but obtained directly in the process of knitting, should be considered a component of the kit, even if there is no rubber band on the garment intended for the lower part of the body.

Clothing sets should not be considered sets if their components are made of different materials, even if the differences are only in their color.

All components of the kit must be presented together for retail sale as a single product. Individual packaging or separate labelling of each component of such a single article shall not affect its treatment as a set.

2. For the purposes of heading 6109, the terms “T-shirt” and “other wearables” apply to underwear, even of a shaped cut, without collar, with or without sleeves, including articles with straps.

Objects of clothing intended for the upper body are often similar to sleeved hoods or to the more traditional types of T-shirts and other wearable hoods of heading 6109.

3. Heading 6111 and subheadings 6116 10 200 0 and 6116 10 800 0 cover gloves, mittens and mittens impregnated or coated with plastic or rubber, even if:

- made of knitted or hand-knitted fabric impregnated or coated with plastic or rubber of heading 5903 or 5906; or

- made of unimpregnated or uncoated knitted fabric of machine or hand knitting and subsequently impregnated or covered with plastic or rubber.

In the case where the knitted fabric of machine or hand knitting is used only for reinforcement, gloves, mittens or mittens, impregnated or coated with porous plastic or porous rubber, belong to chapter 39 or 40, even if they are made of unsoaked or uncoated knitted fabric of machine or hand knitting and subsequently impregnated or covered with porous plastic or porous rubber (note 2(a)(5) and note 5, last paragraph, to chapter 59).
