Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If featuring a foxing or foxing-like band of rubber/plastics overlapping the upper
Presence of rubber/plastics foxing band shifts classification to the excepted subheading for such constructions.
If outer sole has rubber/plastics as greatest surface area in ground contact
Sole material determination per chapter note 4(b) would place it in 'other' footwear without textile-dominant soles.
If sold as separate uppers without attached soles
Unfinished uppers of textile materials classify under heading 6406 parts, but assembled footwear stays in 6404.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify outer sole composition via lab testing to confirm textile (e.g
• jute) has greatest ground contact, excluding non-durable materials per U.S. note 5
• Provide detailed upper material breakdown (must be predominantly textile by surface area) and photos showing open heel/slip-on design
• Avoid misclassification as closed footwear; common pitfall is overlooking foxing band exclusions
