Last updated: August 2026 dataKnitted or crocheted garments that have been impregnated, coated, covered, or laminated with rubber, plastics, or resins occupy a technically distinct classification space from ordinary knit apparel, and the US schedule is unusually granular — spanning more than twenty 10-digit lines that differentiate by gender, garment type (coats, trousers, overalls, other), base fabric (rubber/plastic-obscuring vs. non-obscuring, cotton vs. other), and coating material (rubber/plastic vs. resin). Vietnam and China are the primary sources, with Bangladesh and Cambodia also significant. The functional performance characteristics of the coating — waterproofing, chemical resistance, or thermal protection — often determine end-use sector placement, ranging from industrial workwear to outdoor recreational apparel.

The key distinction is that heading 6113 applies when the base fabric is knitted or crocheted and the coating or impregnation does not completely obscure the underlying textile structure. If the plastic or rubber layer fully obscures the fabric, the article may instead classify as a plastic or rubber article under Chapters 39 or 40. The essential character of the garment — whether it functions primarily as a textile garment or as a rubber/plastic article — guides the analysis, and a binding ruling from CBP is advisable for borderline cases.
Lines covering garments where the rubber or plastic coating obscures the fabric (e.g., 6113000005) apply to articles where the coating is visually dominant. Resin-impregnated lines (e.g., 6113009015 through 6113009086) cover garments where a resin treatment — such as a water-repellent or stiffening finish — has been applied but the textile character of the fabric remains visible. The distinction affects both classification and, in some cases, the applicable duty rate.
