Raffia Woven Wedge Espadrilles from Japan

Raffia woven wedge espadrilles have hand-woven raffia uppers from palm leaves, providing breathable casual footwear. They are classified under 6405.20.90 as other footwear with textile uppers, as raffia is a vegetable fiber and the shoes are not sports footwear. The wedge design and casual use confirm the 'other' category.

Import Tips

• Confirm raffia is the dominant upper material by external surface area, per Chapter 64 Note 4(a)

• Ensure the product is not designed for sports, which would reclassify it

• Keep product photos and fiber composition documentation for CBSA
