Import Tips
• Verify textile fiber content via lab testing to confirm classification under 'of textile materials' and avoid misclassification to leather or rubber subheadings
• Include detailed invoices specifying 'leg-warmers' use and material breakdown to support gaiter-like function per HTS notes
• Watch for common pitfalls like classifying as hosiery (Chapter 61); ensure description emphasizes footwear part functionality
