Import Tips
• Verify upper material composition exceeds 90% rubber/plastics via surface area measurement per Chapter Note 4(a), excluding accessories
• Ensure no foxing or foxing-like band overlaps upper to avoid reclassification to 6402.91.90
• Provide detailed photos and material specs in entry docs to prevent CBP disputes on external surface area
