Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If for men or unisex sizing
Gender-specific subheading; women's designation requires half-sizes above men's equivalents per HTS convention.
If sole ground contact is rubber/plastics dominant
Chapter note 4(b) bases outer sole material on largest ground-contact area; qualifying textiles ignored only if durable per US note 5.
If imported as unfinished textile sandal uppers
State of completion matters; mere uppers without soles classify as other made-up textile articles.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Provide weave analysis confirming vegetable fiber upper dominance; test sole textile for non-durable traits per US note 5
• Include assembly photos proving exclusive adhesive use; declare accurate FOB value to stay under $3/pair threshold
• Avoid mixing synthetic fibers exceeding surface area limit, risking shift to 6404.19.10 synthetic uppers
