The two bottom pockets feature side zipper openings and snap flap closures.  The neck has a self fabric belt with a single snap closure.  The inside of the jacket, constructed from quilted nylon woven fabric, has one pocket.  As you have requested, the sample garments is being returned.

	Style PC396BO falls within textile category designation 334.  As a product of Hong Kong this merchandise is currently subject to visa and quota requirements based upon international textile trade agreements.
	
     The designated textile and apparel category may be subdivided into parts.  If so, visa and quota requirements applicable to the subject merchandise may be affected.  Since part categories are the result of international bilateral agreements which are subject to frequent renegotiations and changes, to obtain the most current information available, we suggest that you check, close to the time of shipment, the Status Report on Current Import Quotas (Restraint Levels), an internal issuance of the U.S. Customs Service, which is available for inspection at your local Customs office.

	This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Part 177 of the Customs Regulations.

	A copy of this ruling letter should be attached to the entry documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported.  If the documents have been filed without a copy, this ruling should be brought to the attention of the Customs officer handling the transaction.

            				                       Sincerely,
