Import Tips
• Use certified labs for composition analysis to prove <50% rubber/plastics and leather sole qualification
• Classify as women's based on size/fit (typically EU 36-42); mixed shipments need segregation
• Retain manufacturing records showing no excluded parts like spikes per heading 6406 note
