Import Tips

• Verify the outer sole's ground-contacting material is predominantly rubber/plastics per Chapter Note 4(b); document surface area measurements to avoid reclassification

• Provide lab tests confirming protective function against water or inclement weather, as required for this subheading; include supplier specs in entry docs

• Label footwear clearly with material composition and 'men's' sizing to prevent common pitfalls like gender misclassification during CBP review
