Last updated: August 2026 dataWoven and cut-and-sewn gloves under heading 6216 are among the most tariff-line-dense accessories in Chapter 62, with distinctions drawn by fiber type, plastic or rubber impregnation level, the presence or absence of fourchettes (the gussets between fingers), and sport-specific use such as ice hockey or skiing. China dominates supply, with Vietnam, Pakistan, Indonesia, and Cambodia serving as alternative sources. Section 301 tariffs apply to Chinese-origin goods, and the fourchette and impregnation distinctions are frequent classification flashpoints that CBP has historically examined closely.

Fourchettes — the small fabric gussets sewn between the fingers — are a structural feature that the US tariff schedule uses to distinguish between glove constructions, particularly for impregnated or coated gloves. Several 10-digit lines within 6216 are defined specifically by whether fourchettes are present, so a physical examination of the glove's construction is necessary before the correct line can be assigned.
The US schedule carves out dedicated lines for ice/field hockey gloves (e.g., 6216000500, 6216003300, 6216004300) and ski/snowmobile gloves (e.g., 6216000800, 6216003500, 6216004600) based on both fiber content and sport use. Importers must ensure that sport-specific claims are supported by product specifications, as misclassifying a general work glove as a ski glove to access a different duty rate is a compliance risk.
