Women's Sisal Woven Espadrille Flats from Germany

Classic women's espadrille flats with uppers crafted from woven sisal vegetable fibers for a natural, summery look. The jute-rope reinforced sole has textile materials (woven fibers) with the greatest surface area touching the ground, disregarded under U.S. note 5 for lacking sole durability. Priced $8-$11/pair, they match HTS 6404.19.82.60 for women's vegetable fiber uppers and textile sole dominance.

Import Tips

• Obtain supplier affidavits confirming vegetable fiber composition (e.g

• sisal >50% external surface) to support upper classification

• Avoid common pitfall of classifying as leather uppers if any minimal leather trim exceeds vegetable fiber area per chapter note 4(a)

• Label clearly as women's footwear; size charts must align with U.S. standards to prevent gender misclassification issues
