Import Tips
• Include technical data sheets proving protective water resistance from coated fabric, not molded construction
• Check for reinforcements like ankle patches—Chapter Note 4(a) ignores them for upper material
• Declare accurately to avoid audits on 'active' vs general footwear distinctions
