Import Tips
• Verify fabric is pre-existing machine-knit jersey, brushed/napped, with fourchettes via mill certificates to avoid reclassification
• Label fiber content accurately as cotton per FTC rules; common pitfall is misstating blend percentages
• Ensure no impregnation/treatment beyond napping to stay in this subheading; document knit process
