About heading 6505

Hats and other headgear, knitted or crocheted, or made up from lace, felt or other textile fabric, in the piece (but not in strips), whether or not lined or trimmed; hair-nets of any material, whether or not lined or trimmed

Heading 6505 covers hats and other headgear that are knitted or crocheted, or made up from lace, felt or other textile fabric in the piece, whether or not lined or trimmed, plus hair-nets of any material. The lines split first by felt hats made from the hat bodies, hoods or plateaux of heading 6501, then by fiber (cotton or flax, wool, man-made fibers, silk, fine animal hair, paper yarn, unspun vegetable fibers). Within each fiber group the break is by knitted versus not knitted, by babies versus other wearers, by braid content, and by whether the item covers the crown of the head.
