This letter replaces our previous ruling dated January 27, 1999 where Customs made a clerical error in the fiber content description of samples 6103, 6104, 6112 and 6119. The fiber for those styles was stated to be cotton knitted fleeced fabric when in fact it should have stated the fiber to be of 100% polyester knitted fleeced fabric. The classifications and duty rates are correct. This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Part 177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177). A copy of the ruling or the control number indicated above should be provided with the entry documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported. Sincerely, COMMENT12 Michael R.
