Import Tips & Compliance

โ€ข Verify textile upper exceeds 50% external surface area per Chapter Note 4(a); document material composition with lab tests if challenged

โ€ข Ensure labeling includes fiber content (e.g

โ€ข 100% cotton canvas) and country of origin per FTC and CBP rules

โ€ข Avoid misclassification as sports footwear by confirming no provisions for spikes or cleats; common pitfall for athletic-looking casuals
