Import Tips & Compliance

Test sole for exact rubber/plastic content; composition leather often borderline on percentages

Include manufacturing specs in entry docs to substantiate 'not over 50% rubber or plastics' claim

Avoid common pitfall of misdeclaring upper material—textile must dominate external surface
