Men's Wooden Platform Clog Sandals with Rubber Upper from Japan
These men's casual sandals feature a wooden base or platform with uppers constructed predominantly of rubber or plastics, covering over 90% of the external surface area. The design includes a molded rubber foxing that does not overlap the upper, qualifying them under HTS 6402.99.23.30 as non-sports, non-protective footwear for men. They are intended for everyday summer wear.

Import Tips
• Verify upper material composition exceeds 90% rubber/plastics via lab testing to confirm classification and avoid reclassification to textile uppers
• Provide detailed photos and blueprints showing wooden base/platform construction and lack of foxing overlap for CBP review
• Ensure men's sizing documentation (e.g
• US 7-13) to prevent misclassification as women's or unisex footwear
