Import Tips
• Ensure right-over-left closure for men's classification per chapter notes; ambiguous cuts default to women's headings
• Document as individual shorts, not ensembles; common issue is retail sets triggering ensemble rules
• Test for shrinkage and colorfastness to meet U.S. standards; delays occur from unverified artificial fiber claims
