Import Tips
• Verify fiber content is at least 70% wool or fine animal hair via lab tests to confirm classification in 6202
• Ensure labeling complies with FTC rules for wool products, including country of origin and care instructions
• Avoid misclassification as ensembles by importing vests separately, not in sets with lower-body garments
