The submitted samples, Style 29191 are a faux fur collar and cuffs made from knit 100% acrylic fabric with a polyester lining. The collar has button holes and loops and the cuffs have buttons, to facilitate attaching onto a garment.

Style 29191 falls within textile category designation 659. Based upon international textile trade agreements products of China and/or Korea are subject to quota and the requirement of a visa. The designated textile and apparel categories may be subdivided into parts. If so, visa and quota requirements applicable to the subject merchandise may be affected.
