Import Tips
• Label clearly as 'plastic uppers' on commercial invoice; CBP often inspects jelly-style for material verification
• Provide production cost breakdowns if value near thresholds to prevent disputes during entry
• Ensure no waterproof claims that could trigger 'protective' scrutiny under US note for active footwear
