Import Tips
• Verify waterproofing is via coated textile per US notes; provide lab tests if challenged on classification
• Ensure documentation shows intended use as overshoes, not primary footwear, to avoid reclassification
• Label fiber content accurately for textile uppers; common pitfall is misstating rubber vs textile dominance
