6402.99.79.15 - House slippers

This HTS classification covers house slippers that are not specifically classified elsewhere within the broader categories of footwear with outer soles and uppers of rubber or plastics. The defining characteristic is their intended use as indoor footwear, providing comfort and protection within the home environment. While many house slippers will fall under this heading, the classification emphasizes specific value thresholds and material compositions as outlined in the preceding subheadings.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling is crucial. The "Other" designation at this level signifies that the slippers do not fit into more narrowly defined subcategories that might exist based on specific features, construction methods, or material variations that are not present here. Therefore, house slippers that meet the general criteria of having rubber or plastic outer soles and uppers, and are not specifically addressed by more granular subheadings within the broader "Other footwear" sections, will be classified here.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subdivisions. Classification within this code, 6402.99.79.15, signifies that the house slippers have an outer sole and upper made of rubber or plastics, fall under the broader "Other footwear" categories, and are valued over $3 but not over $6.50 per pair. The "Other" descriptor at this terminal level indicates that no further specific criteria apply beyond the established value and material composition for this particular type of house slipper.
