Import Tips
• Verify the upper's external surface area is predominantly textile (>50%) via lab testing to avoid reclassification to leather or rubber uppers
• Include detailed material composition invoices and photos showing naked-eye textile dominance for CBP review
• Avoid common pitfalls like mislabeling as 'sports footwear' without spikes or cleats, which shifts to 6402/6403
