U.S. imports of women's & girls' knitted trousers, overalls, breeches & shorts of cotton (HS 610462) totaled $93.7M in April 2026, traded with 83 countries.
Importers of Women's & Girls' Knitted Trousers, Overalls, Breeches & Shorts of Cotton paid $20.7M in duties in April 2026 — an effective duty rate of 24% on $84.6M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: April 2026 dataCotton knitted trousers and shorts for women and girls represent one of the most heavily subdivided categories in Chapter 61, with the US schedule distinguishing insulated versus non-insulated overalls, elastane yarn content (≥5% elastic yarn lines), playsuit components, and women's versus girls' sizing across more than a dozen 10-digit lines. The elastane-content split — separating trousers with 5% or more elastic yarn from those without — reflects the commercial importance of stretch-cotton fabrications in activewear and athleisure. Vietnam leads US supply, followed by Indonesia, Cambodia, China, and Bangladesh, giving importers a broad Southeast Asian sourcing base. Section 301 tariffs apply to Chinese-origin goods, and the playsuit-component lines (e.g., 6104622016, 6104622021) require importers to confirm whether girls' shorts are imported as part of a coordinated set.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Trousers containing 5% or more by weight of elastomeric (elastic) yarn are classified under the dedicated elastic-yarn lines (e.g., 6104622006 for women's, 6104622026 for girls' NESOI). Those below the 5% threshold fall into the 'other' lines. Importers should obtain yarn composition data from fabric mills to determine which line applies, as the distinction affects duty rates and quota tracking.
To use the playsuit-component lines (6104622016 or 6104622021), the shorts must be imported together with a matching top as a coordinated set, and the commercial invoice and packing list should identify them as components of a playsuit. Shorts imported separately, even if designed to coordinate with a top, are classified under the standalone shorts lines.
