Import Tips

• Verify value exceeds $24/pair and document waterproofing via coated/laminated textile for protective active classification

• Provide lab tests confirming outer sole rubber has greatest ground contact area; avoid misclassification as textile sole

• Label fiber content accurately and ensure no spikes/cleats to stay out of sports footwear subheadings
