Import Tips
• Provide performance test reports (e.g
• abrasion resistance) to substantiate 'recreational performance outerwear' claim
• Check for right-over-left closure confirming women's classification per Chapter notes
• Avoid bulk packaging; retail-ready units help distinguish from industrial apparel
