How can you determine the applicability of socks and hosiery to the flammability standard? Is it determined by weight of product or content or both?

Socks and hosiery are items that are covered by the Flammable Fabrics Act and need to comply with the Wearing Apparel Flammability Standard. Socks and/or hosiery might be exempt from testing due to weight or fiber content; however, they must still comply with the Standard. If they comply to the standard either by testing or by an exemption to testing, they will need to be listed on a certificate of conformity.
