U.S. imports of Woven Fabrics of Synthetic Staple Fibers, Under 85%, Mixed Mainly with Wool or Fine Animal Hair (SITC 65341) totaled $4.5M in August 2026, imported from 17 countries.
Importers of Woven Fabrics of Synthetic Staple Fibers, Under 85%, Mixed Mainly with Wool or Fine Animal Hair paid $117K in duties in August 2026, an average duty rate of 2.59% — duty actually collected as a share of the imports that cleared customs, not the published tariff schedule. Woven Fabrics of Synthetic Staple Fibers, Under 85%, Mixed Mainly with Wool or Fine Animal Hair imports of $4.5M in August 2026 ran 27% above the year-to-date monthly average of $3.5M.
Last updated: August 2026 dataBlended woven fabrics in which synthetic staple fibers (below 85% by weight) are combined predominantly with wool or fine animal hair — such as cashmere, angora, or alpaca — serve the suiting, coating, and luxury outerwear sectors. The wool or fine-hair component drives both the commercial value and the classification: if the secondary fiber shifts from wool to cotton or manmade filaments, the fabric moves to a different heading entirely. Accurate fiber identification is especially important here because fine animal hairs can be difficult to distinguish microscopically, and misclassification between wool and specialty hair blends can affect both duty liability and country-of-origin determinations.

Fine animal hair includes fibers from animals such as cashmere goats, angora rabbits, alpacas, vicuñas, and camels, among others. These are distinguished from coarse animal hair (such as horsehair) and from wool (sheep fiber) by fiber diameter and species of origin, and laboratory microscopy or DNA testing may be required to confirm the fiber type.
The heading applies only when synthetic staple fibers are under 85% by weight and wool or fine animal hair is the dominant secondary component. Fabrics where the synthetic content reaches or exceeds 85% fall into a different classification with potentially different duty rates, making precise blend documentation critical for importers.
