Import Tips
• Verify leather origin with certificates from headings 4107 or 4112-4114 to confirm upper material per Chapter Note 4(a)
• Document welt construction and measure external surface area of leather upper (>50%) to avoid reclassification
• Avoid common pitfall of mislabeling as rubber/plastics sole if leather contact area with ground is greatest
