Overview
This HTS category, 6403.19.70.91, encompasses "Other" sports footwear designed for persons other than women, where the outer soles are made of rubber, plastics, leather, or composition leather, and the uppers are constructed from leather. This classification is reserved for sports shoes that do not fit into more specific subcategories based on the sport or the intended wearer. It is crucial to identify the primary intended use of the footwear as a sports item to ensure correct classification.
This category serves as a residual for men's and children's sports footwear that doesn't meet the criteria for specialized sports shoes like tennis shoes, basketball shoes, or other specifically designated athletic footwear. The key distinguishing factor from sibling categories, such as "For women," is the intended demographic, with this node focusing on footwear for males and individuals not identified as female. The presence of leather uppers and the specified outer sole materials are consistent with the broader requirements of heading 6403 and its subheadings.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Therefore, classification within 6403.19.70.91 relies heavily on carefully evaluating the footwear's design and intended purpose against the exclusions and definitions of higher-level HTS codes. If a shoe is designed for athletic activity and meets the material requirements but does not align with the specific definitions of other sports footwear categories, it will likely fall under this "Other" classification for men and children.
