Import Tips
• Verify upper material is predominantly leather (headings 4107, 4112-4114) via surface area test; document with material specs
• Include value declarations and invoices showing per-pair price under $2.50 to avoid reclassification to higher-value subheadings
• Ensure no sports features like spikes to prevent misclassification under sports footwear notes
