A shoulder holster-style case for DSLR cameras, with a foam interior base mainly covered by rugged plastic sheeting for impact and moisture protection. It qualifies for HTS 4202.99.10.00 as a camera case of materials wholly covered with plastics, separate from textile or leather holsters.

Import Tips
• Declare exact coverage percentage (>50% plastics) with supplier affidavits to support 'wholly or mainly covered' claim
• Check for prohibited fur linings per chapter notes, which would redirect to heading 4303
• Use HTS advisory rulings for hybrid materials to preempt valuation disputes
