Cotton Ankle House Slippers from Canada
Comfortable house slippers made with uppers primarily of cotton vegetable fibers, featuring an open toe design and covering the ankle for warmth. The outer sole is rubber or plastics comprising less than 10% by weight, qualifying under HTS 6404.19.25.15 due to the textile upper material, slip-on style without fasteners, and low rubber/plastics content.

Import Tips
• Verify upper is predominantly vegetable fibers like cotton by surface area per Chapter Note 4(a); test for exact rubber/plastics weight percentage
• Provide detailed material composition invoices; common pitfall is misclassifying due to foxing bands—ensure none overlap upper
• Label as house slippers only if not suitable for outdoor use; retain lab tests for Customs audits
