Last updated: April 2026 dataWoven-fabric underpants and briefs for men and boys occupy a distinct classification from their knitted counterparts, a distinction that directly affects applicable duty rates and quota treatment under US textile trade agreements. The fiber content and fabric construction—whether cotton, synthetic, or a blend—drive further HTS breakouts at the 10-digit level and can trigger Section 301 exposure depending on origin. Importers sourcing from major apparel-producing countries should confirm fabric composition documentation before entry, as misclassification between woven and knit constructions is a frequent CBP audit trigger.

The key test is fabric construction: woven fabrics are made by interlacing yarns at right angles on a loom, while knitted fabrics are formed by interlocking loops. CBP may request fabric analysis or mill certificates to confirm construction. Misclassifying a knit article as woven—or vice versa—can result in incorrect duty rates and potential penalties.
Yes. At the HTS 10-digit level, woven men's and boys' underpants are further subdivided by fiber composition (e.g., cotton vs. man-made fibers), and each subdivision carries its own duty rate. Importers should verify the chief-weight fiber of the fabric to select the correct tariff line and avoid underpayment of duties.
