Cotton Shoe Laces from Mexico
Flat or round laces made entirely from cotton yarns, used primarily for lacing footwear such as sneakers and boots. These qualify under HTS 6307.90.50.10 as 'footwear lacings' of cotton, distinct from other textile articles due to their specific lacing function. They are typically sold in bulk for manufacturing or retail replacement.

Import Tips
• Verify 100% cotton composition via lab tests to meet the 'of cotton' subheading; blends over 5% other fibers may shift classification
• Provide detailed invoices specifying length, width, and end treatments (e.g
• aglets) to avoid misclassification as narrow woven fabrics
