Women's Rubber Rain Boots Mid-Calf from Mexico

These women's mid-calf rain boots feature uppers made almost entirely of rubber or plastics, covering the ankle for protection against wet weather. They qualify under HTS 6402.91.4050 because over 90% of the external surface area of the upper is rubber/plastics, without foxing or foxing-like bands, and are designed for women. The outer sole is also of rubber or plastics, providing waterproof functionality.
