Last updated: April 2026 dataCotton knitted trousers and shorts are among the most widely traded items in Chapter 61, spanning everything from casual joggers to structured chino-style knits. Vietnam, Cambodia, and Bangladesh collectively dominate US supply under this heading, reflecting the concentration of cotton knitwear production in Southeast Asia and South Asia. The US schedule is notably detailed — ten active 10-digit lines separate men's from boys' garments, trousers from shorts, and insulated from non-insulated overalls, with additional splits for boys' sizes 2–7 and imported-as-parts-of-playsuits designations.

Lines such as 6103421065 apply when boys' shorts are imported as a component of a coordinated playsuit set rather than as a standalone garment. CBP looks at whether the pieces are presented together, matched in fabric and color, and invoiced as a set. If the shorts are imported separately without a matching top, they would classify under the standalone boys' shorts line (6103421070) instead.
Line 6103422010 covers insulated overalls — those with a filling material (such as batting or padding) incorporated for thermal protection — while 6103422015 and 6103422025 cover non-insulated overalls, further split by boys' sizes 2–7 versus other sizes. The insulation determination is based on the garment's construction at importation; a quilted outer shell without a distinct insulating fill layer would not qualify as insulated.
