Import Tips
• Document material composition lab tests if questioned; rubber/plastics must be visible externally per Chapter Note 3(a)
• Avoid common pitfall of mixing with textile uppers—measure surface area accurately for classification
• For bulk imports, segregate by value and gender to match exact subheading 6402.91.60.30 for men
