About this HS Code
HS Code 6116 covers gloves, mittens, and mitts, knitted or crocheted. The classification distinguishes between gloves impregnated/coated with plastics or rubber (6116.10) and other varieties organized by fiber composition (6116.91-6116.99). This specialized accessory category includes hand coverings for fashion, warmth, and light work applications. Products range from fine-gauge dress gloves to thick insulated winter mittens. Technical specifications focus on fit, dexterity, warmth retention, and durability at stress points. Unlike cut-and-sew gloves (HS 4203/6216), these knitted varieties offer enhanced flexibility and comfort through the inherent stretch properties of knitted structures. This division represents specialized manufacturing on glove-knitting machines capable of creating anatomically shaped finger tubes and precisely positioned design elements. Advanced products often combine different knitting techniques within a single glove to optimize fit and function across different areas of the hand.
