Women's Bamboo Fiber Slip-On Sandals from Canada
These lightweight slip-on sandals for women feature uppers made primarily from bamboo vegetable fibers, with open toes and held to the foot without laces or buckles. The outer soles are rubber or plastics comprising less than 10% by weight, and no foxing band is present. They classify under HTS 6404.19.25.60 due to the textile upper of vegetable fibers, slip-on design, and low rubber/plastics content.

Import Tips
• Verify the upper's external surface area is predominantly vegetable fibers like bamboo or sisal via lab testing to confirm classification
• Document sole weight composition to prove rubber/plastics under 10%; common pitfall is miscalculating due to reinforcements
• Label as women's footwear based on size/fit; provide heel height measurements if questioned by customs
