coated, or both, with critically sealed seams, and with 5 or more of the
following features:
(i)Insulation for cold weather protection.
(ii)Pockets, at least one of which has a zippered,
hook and loop, or other type of closure.
(iii)Elastic, drawcord, or other means of

(v)Articulated elbows or knees.
(vi)Reinforcement in one of the following areas: the
elbows, shoulders, seat, knees, ankles, or cuffs.

The term
recreational performance outerwear does not include occupational
outerwear or garments with an outer surface of looped pile.(b)For purposes of this Note, the following terms
have the following meanings:
(i)The term water-resistant means that a
garment must have a water resistance (see ASTM designations D 3779–81 and D
7017) such that, under a head pressure of 600 millimeters, not more than 1.0
gram of water penetrates after two minutes when tested in accordance with the
current version of AATCC Test Method 35. The water resistance of the garment is
the result of a rubber or plastics application to the outer shell, lining, or
inner lining.
(ii)The term visibly coated refers to
fabric that is impregnated, coated, covered, or laminated with plastics, such
as fabrics described in Note 2 to chapter 59.
(iii)The term sealed seams means seams
that have been covered by means of taping, gluing, bonding, cementing, fusing,
welding, or a similar process so that water cannot pass through the seams when
tested in accordance with the current version of AATCC Test Method 35.
(iv)The term critically sealed seams
means—
(A)for jackets, sealed seams that are sealed at the
front and back yokes, or at the shoulders, arm holes, or both, where
applicable; and
(B)for trousers, sealed seams that are sealed at the
front (up to the zipper or other means of closure) and back rise.
(v)The term insulation for cold weather
protection means insulation with either synthetic fill, down, a
laminated thermal backing, or other lining for thermal protection from cold
weather.
(vi)The term venting refers to
closeable or permanent constructed openings in a garment (excluding front,
primary zipper closures and grommet(s)) to allow increased expulsion of
built-up heat during outdoor activities. In a jacket, such openings are often
positioned on the underarm seam of a garment but may also be placed along other
seams in the front or back of a garment. In trousers, such openings are often
positioned on the inner or outer leg seams of a garment but may also be placed
along other seams in the front or back of a garment.
(vii)The term articulated elbows or
knees refers to the construction of a sleeve (or pant leg) to allow
improved mobility at the elbow (or knee) through the use of extra seams, darts,
gussets, or other means.
(viii)The term reinforcement refers
to the use of a double layer of fabric or section(s) of fabric that is
abrasion-resistant or otherwise more durable than the face fabric of the
garment.
(ix)The term weatherproof closure means
a closure (including, but not limited to, laminated or coated zippers, storm
flaps, or other weatherproof construction) that has been reinforced or
engineered in a manner to reduce the penetration or absorption of moisture or
air through an opening in the garment.
(x)The term multi-adjustable hood or adjustable
collar means a draw cord, adjustment tab, or elastic incorporated into
the hood or collar construction to allow volume adjustments around a helmet,
the crown of the head, neck, or face.
(xi)The terms adjustable powder skirt
and inner protective skirt refer to a partial lower inner lining
with means of tightening around the waist for additional protection from the
elements.
(xii)The term arm gusset means
construction at the arm of a gusset that utilizes an extra fabric piece in the
under arm usually diamond- or triangular-shaped, design, or pattern to allow
radial arm movement.
(xiii)The term radial arm movement
refers to unrestricted, 180-degree range of motion for the arm while wearing
performance outerwear.
(xiv)The term odor control technology
means an additive in a fabric or garment capable of adsorbing, absorbing, or
reacting with human odors, or effective in reducing odor-causing bacteria,
including but not limited to activated carbon, silver, copper, or any
combination thereof.
(xv)The term occupational outerwear
means outerwear garments, including uniforms, designed or marketed for use in
the workplace or at a worksite to provide durable protection from cold or
inclement weather and/or workplace hazards, such as fire, electrical, abrasion,
or chemical hazards, or impacts, cuts, punctures, or similar hazards.
3.For purposes of this chapter, the importer of record
shall certify upon entry whether garments claimed as recreational performance
outerwear have an outer surface that is water-resistant, visibly coated, or a
combination thereof, and shall further enumerate the specific features that
make the garments eligible to be classified as recreational performance
outerwear.

gram of water penetrates after two minutes when tested in accordance with the
current version of AATCC Test Method 35. The water resistance of the garment is
the result of a rubber or plastics application to the outer shell, lining, or
inner lining.

as fabrics described in Note 2 to chapter 59.
(iii)The term sealed seams means seams

weather.
(vi)The term venting refers to
closeable or permanent constructed openings in a garment (excluding front,

built-up heat during outdoor activities. In a jacket, such openings are often
positioned on the underarm seam of a garment but may also be placed along other
seams in the front or back of a garment. In trousers, such openings are often
positioned on the inner or outer leg seams of a garment but may also be placed
along other seams in the front or back of a garment.
(vii)The term articulated elbows or
knees refers to the construction of a sleeve (or pant leg) to allow
improved mobility at the elbow (or knee) through the use of extra seams, darts,
gussets, or other means.

abrasion-resistant or otherwise more durable than the face fabric of the
garment.
(ix)The term weatherproof closure means
a closure (including, but not limited to, laminated or coated zippers, storm
flaps, or other weatherproof construction) that has been reinforced or
engineered in a manner to reduce the penetration or absorption of moisture or
air through an opening in the garment.

refers to unrestricted, 180-degree range of motion for the arm while wearing
performance outerwear.

the workplace or at a worksite to provide durable protection from cold or
inclement weather and/or workplace hazards, such as fire, electrical, abrasion,
or chemical hazards, or impacts, cuts, punctures, or similar hazards.
4.For purposes of this chapter, the importer of record

recreational performance
outerwear.
