Import Tips
• Label as 'fitness mitts' not 'gloves' if partial finger coverage to distinguish from full gloves
• Provide yarn composition certificates; polyester blends over 50% may qualify for synthetic headings if misdeclared
• Avoid packaging with wristbands, as sets could reclassify under 6117 for protective ensembles
