The wool provides warmth and durability while artificial fibers ensure lightweight performance.

Import Tips

• Include detailed invoices specifying recreational performance features and material breakdown for CBP review

• Avoid common pitfalls like mislabeling as pure artificial fiber, which shifts to lower wool subheadings
