Sisal Fiber Gladiator Sandals from Japan
Sisal fiber gladiator sandals have braided sisal uppers from agave plants, with the vegetable fiber dominating the external surface area. They are classified under 6405.20.90 as other footwear with textile uppers, as they are not sports footwear or wool felt. The fashion-forward, casual design confirms the 'other' category.
