Pigskin Toe-Protective Farm Boots are rugged farm-duty boots with pigskin uppers, heavy welt stitching, metal toe-caps for livestock protection, and aggressive rubber tread soles. They are classified under 6403.40.00 because the pigskin upper dominates the external surface and the metal toe-cap provides protective function.
