Import Tips

• Label footwear clearly as 'pigskin' uppers to match subheading; test surface area dominance

• Include invoices specifying men's sizing and athletic gym shoe purpose to avoid youth reclassification

• Watch for sole material—rubber/plastics qualify, but ensure no leather sole shifting to other headings
