Import Tips
• Use high-resolution images proving leather straps cover greatest upper surface area, ignoring minor reinforcements
• Pre-empt audits by including affidavits confirming absence of protective metal toe-caps
• Track valuation carefully as wooden components may trigger different duty considerations
