Men's Canvas High-Top Sneakers from Germany

These high-top sneakers feature a rubber outer sole and plastic-coated canvas uppers that cover the ankle, designed for casual everyday wear. They fall under HTS 6402.91.80 because the uppers are predominantly rubber/plastics by external surface area, they cover the ankle, and their import value is between $6.50 and $12 per pair. Not qualifying as sports footwear due to lack of spikes or athletic-specific design.

Import Tips

• Verify outer sole material by ground contact area and upper by external surface area per Chapter Note 4; document with photos and supplier specs

• Ensure accurate valuation per pair including retail packaging; common pitfall is misclassifying as sports footwear without spikes or cleats

• Label fiber content if any textile visible, but plastics coating dominates classification
