6402.91.80.91 - Other

This HTS classification covers footwear that is not specifically enumerated in preceding categories under heading 6402.91.80. Crucially, these are "other" footwear, meaning they do not fit the descriptions of men's or women's footwear at this specific level of detail. The key defining characteristic is that these shoes have outer soles and uppers made from rubber or plastics, and they cover the ankle.

To distinguish this category from its siblings, it is important to note the absence of a specific gender designation. While other branches within heading 6402.91 might differentiate based on whether the footwear is intended for men or women, this particular classification serves as a residual category for all other footwear meeting the material and height requirements. Therefore, if a pair of rubber or plastic ankle-covering footwear does not clearly fall under a men's or women's specific subclassification at this level, it would likely be classified here.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Classification at this level is determined by the absence of specific criteria that would place the footwear in a more detailed or distinct category. Therefore, the focus for classification into 6402.91.80.91 is on ensuring the footwear meets the general definition of "other" footwear with rubber or plastic uppers and soles, covering the ankle, and falling within the specified valuation range of over $6.50 but not over $12 per pair, without fitting into any more granular classifications.
