Import Tips
• Verify fiber content exceeds 70% polyester via lab tests to confirm 'other textile materials' classification
• Include detailed care labels specifying machine washable for compliance with U.S. labeling laws
• Avoid misclassifying as sports gloves (6116.10); declare as general fitness use to prevent reclassification
