Import Tips
• Verify down content via lab testing to meet the 15% total fill and 35% down minimums; retain certificates for CBP review
• Label garment with fiber content, country of origin, and care instructions per FTC and CBP rules to avoid penalties
• Avoid misclassification as ski-suits by ensuring not designed specifically for skiing; document end-use as general apparel
