Abaca Fiber Casual Loafers from Japan
Abaca fiber casual loafers feature woven abaca (Manila hemp) uppers that dominate the external surface area, with a natural, durable look. They are classified under 6405.20.90 as other footwear with textile uppers, as they are not sports footwear or wool felt. The casual, non-specialized use confirms the 'other' category.

Import Tips
• Verify abaca is the primary upper material by external surface area, excluding trims
• Ensure the footwear is not designed for sports, which would reclassify it
• Provide a detailed product description to CBSA for smooth clearance
