Last updated: September 2026 dataSilk, wool, and other specialty-fiber knit briefs and panties for women and girls are classified here when the primary fiber is neither cotton nor manmade. The heading divides by silk content — articles at or above 70% silk (6108291000) versus those below that threshold (6108299000) — making fiber-content testing a practical necessity for silk-blend garments. China dominates supply, with Sri Lanka and Turkey also notable sources; Turkey's presence reflects its established position in premium knit intimate apparel for European and US buyers.

CBP typically looks for laboratory fiber-content test results from an accredited testing facility, along with mill certificates or supplier declarations stating the fabric composition. For borderline blends near the 70% silk threshold, lab testing is strongly advisable because the two available lines carry different duty rates and a misclassification can trigger penalties.
Turkey has a well-developed knit fabric and intimate apparel manufacturing sector with strong quality controls, and Turkish producers have historically targeted premium US and European retail buyers seeking alternatives to Asian-origin goods. Its geographic proximity to European fashion hubs also supports shorter lead times for specialty-fiber programs.
