Men's Leather-Trimmed Textile Sneakers from Canada

Casual sneakers featuring a textile upper where leather accents and reinforcements cover over 50% of the external surface area, with a rubber outer sole. Classified under 6404.19.15 because the leather constitutes the majority of the visible external surface per Chapter Note 4(a), despite the primary textile base. These are not sports footwear as they lack provisions for spikes or cleats.

Import Tips

Measure external surface area of the upper precisely, including leather patches and edging, to confirm over 50% leather as per Chapter Note 4(a)

Provide lab test reports or material breakdowns to CBP to verify leather content from headings 4107 or 4112-4114

Avoid misclassification as pure textile uppers (6404.19.90); common pitfall is underestimating leather accessories
