Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If featuring a foxing or foxing-like band of rubber/plastics
Footwear with a foxing band wholly or almost wholly of rubber/plastics molded at the sole and overlapping the upper is classified separately to distinguish construction type.
If uppers predominantly textile rather than rubber/plastics
Chapter Note 4(a) bases upper material on greatest external surface area; textile-dominant uppers shift to Chapter 64 headings for textile footwear.
If not specifically for women (unisex or men's)
This subheading specifies 'for women'; other gender or unisex variants fall under residual 'other' provisions.
