Import Tips

Verify fiber content is at least 85% cotton via lab tests to confirm blue denim classification and avoid reclassification

Label garments clearly as 'girls'' with size charts matching US standards; include care instructions per FTC rules

Watch for common pitfalls like incorrect closure direction (right-over-left for girls') which could shift to boys' headings
