Import Tips
• Verify fiber content exceeds 95% wool via lab tests to confirm classification under wool subheading; blends may shift to synthetic headings
• Label garments clearly as 'men's' based on left-over-right closure or cut to avoid defaulting to women's headings per Chapter notes
• Provide knitting gauge documentation if challenged, as coarse knits might reclassify under other chapters
