Import Tips
• Verify the upper's external surface area is predominantly textile (>50%) per Chapter Note 4(a) to avoid reclassification to leather uppers
• Provide lab tests confirming outer sole material is rubber/plastics in contact with ground, excluding reinforcements
• Label footwear clearly with country of origin and material composition to meet CBP marking requirements; watch for undervaluation pitfalls
