Import Tips
• Kids' sizes don't affect classification but ensure per-pair pricing reflects smaller sizing values
• Test upper breathability materials to confirm textile vs plastic coating visibility per Chapter Note 3
• Package individually for retail; bulk kids' packs risk 'set' reclassification issues
