Women's Textile Canvas Sneakers from Mexico

Low-top sneakers for women featuring a textile canvas upper and rubber outer sole, designed for casual everyday wear. Classified under HTS 6404.19.79.60 because the upper is predominantly textile by external surface area, outer sole is rubber/plastics, valued between $3-$6.50 per pair, and specifically for women. Not considered sports footwear as it lacks provisions for spikes or cleats.

Import Tips

• Verify upper material is textile-dominant (greatest external surface area) via lab testing to avoid reclassification to leather uppers

• Include detailed value documentation per pair; undervaluation leads to audits and penalties

• Label footwear clearly as 'women's' with size charts matching US standards to confirm gender-specific subheading
