Import Tips & Compliance
• Confirm sports footwear status via design (e.g
• no spikes needed but athletic intent per subheading note)
• Use detailed photos in entries showing upper textile dominance to counter leather misclassification
• Watch for color changes from plastic coatings; Chapter Note 3(a) ignores them for material determination
