Import Tips
• Measure external surface area of upper materials; leather must dominate over any textile linings or reinforcements
• Include lab tests confirming composition leather sole durability per US Note on textile exclusion
• Avoid bulk packaging pitfalls; retail-ready pairs need individual boxes to prevent set classification issues
