Last updated: July 2026 dataUnblocked, brimless felt hat bodies — including hoods, plateaux, and manchons — are intermediate millinery components traded before final shaping and finishing. Classified at the semi-finished stage, these forms are distinct from blocked or trimmed headwear and attract different duty treatment than completed hats. Importers should confirm fiber composition (wool felt vs. fur-felt vs. synthetic felt) when classifying, as the material distinction can affect applicable duty rates and quota exposure.
