Import Tips
• Verify outer sole material has greatest ground contact area (rubber/plastics) per Chapter Note 4(b); ignore minor reinforcements
• Provide value documentation like invoices to confirm under $3/pair threshold; undervaluation risks penalties
• Label as footwear, not 'protective gear' to avoid misclassification into safety equipment codes
