6403.91.30.35 - With pigskin uppers 🖩

This HTS subheading, 6403.91.30.35, specifically classifies footwear that meets the general criteria of chapter 64 and heading 6403, but with a particular focus on the upper material. The defining characteristic of this category is the presence of uppers constructed from pigskin. This classification applies to footwear where the outer sole is made of rubber, plastics, leather, or composition leather, and the article in question is not specifically covered by more detailed subheadings within the 6403.91.30 classification.

Within the broader category of "Other" footwear that covers the ankle (6403.91), this subheading is distinct from its sibling, 6403.91.30.40 ("Other"). While both fall under the "Other" designation after "Welt footwear" and are intended for men, the key differentiator lies solely in the composition of the upper. Subheading .30.35 is exclusively for pigskin uppers, whereas .30.40 would encompass all other types of leather uppers not already specified.

As this subheading is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, practical classification relies on a precise identification of the upper material as pigskin. Examples of footwear that would fall under this classification include men's boots, shoes, or other ankle-covering footwear with outer soles of rubber, plastics, leather, or composition leather, where the entire upper is made from pigskin. The absence of specific construction methods (like welt construction) or other upper materials directs the classification to this particular designation.
