6403.91.90.25/Women's Pigskin Ankle Boots/Japan

Women's Pigskin Ankle Boots from Japan

These women's ankle boots feature uppers made primarily from genuine pigskin leather, covering the ankle, with rubber outer soles for durability. They fall under HTS 6403.91.90.25 because the pigskin constitutes the greatest external surface area of the upper, distinguishing it from other leathers like cowhide. Designed for casual wear, they provide comfort and style without sports-specific features.

Import Tips

• Verify pigskin origin with supplier certificates; HTS requires uppers to have pigskin as dominant material by surface area

• Include lab tests confirming leather type to avoid reclassification during customs exam; common pitfall is mislabeling as other leather

• Declare exact ankle coverage measurement; ensure no sports features to stay out of 6402/6404
