Import Tips
• Document performance features like 'quick-dry' or 'UV protection' in commercial docs to justify recreational outerwear status
• Conduct fiber analysis to confirm artificial composition; blends under 50% may shift to cotton headings like 6203.42
• Watch for anti-dumping duties on certain Asian-origin nylon apparel; check current AD/CVD orders
