Infant Canvas Espadrilles from China
Infant canvas espadrilles are lightweight summer shoes for babies, featuring textile canvas uppers and soles made of jute and rubber. They are classified under tariff item 6405.90.00 as 'other footwear' because they do not meet the definition of sports footwear and the textile upper is the dominant material by surface area. The jute/rubber sole composition places them outside more specific headings for rubber or plastic footwear.

Import Tips
• Ensure the upper material is clearly identified as textile on your commercial invoice to support classification under 6405.90.00
• Verify the infant size (Canadian children's size 12 or under) to confirm statistical eligibility
• Be prepared to provide a sample or product photos if CBSA requests verification of the sole composition
