Import Tips

• Conduct surface area measurements for upper (textile dominant) and sole per chapter note 4; document for CBP review

• Avoid common pitfall of classifying as women's/unisex without size confirmation; specify men's sizing

• Ensure no vegetable fibers in upper to stay in this subheading; test blends if mixed materials
