Import Tips

Verify cotton content exceeds 70% via lab tests for accurate classification; blends may shift to other subheadings

Label garments clearly with fiber content, country of origin, and care instructions per FTC and CBP requirements

Avoid misclassification as casual pants (6203.42.4015) by documenting performance features like water-repellency
