Import Tips
• Verify the external surface area of the upper is predominantly textile (>50%) per Chapter Note 4(a); measure excluding reinforcements
• Document appraised value exceeding $12/pair with invoices to avoid reclassification to lower-value subheadings
• Ensure labeling specifies men's sizing and fiber content of textile upper to comply with FTC requirements
