Import Tips
• Conduct surface area measurements for uppers and soles per Chapter Notes 4(a)-(b); retain lab tests if disputed
• Avoid common pitfall of undervaluation scrutiny—provide factory cost breakdowns proving low per-pair value
• Label clearly as 'for other persons' (adult sizes) to distinguish from infant/juvenile categories
