6403.99.90.71 - Other 🖩

This classification, HTS Code 6403.99.90.71, encompasses "Other" footwear where the outer sole is constructed from rubber, plastics, leather, or composition leather, and the upper is made of leather. Specifically, it pertains to footwear not otherwise specified within the broader categories of chapter 64, excluding specialized athletic footwear or items with specific functional designs. The key defining elements remain the material composition of the outer sole and upper, combined with the lack of a more precise HTS classification.

The distinction of this category from its sibling, "For women," is critical for accurate classification. While both may fall under the "Other footwear" and "Other" subheadings, this current node specifically applies to footwear intended for all other persons not explicitly categorized as "for women." This implies footwear designed for men, children, or unisex use, provided they meet the material and structural requirements of the parent categories.

As this node is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification within HTS 6403.99.90.71 relies entirely on the established criteria of outer sole material (rubber, plastics, leather, or composition leather), upper material (leather), and the absence of a more specific tariff provision. Importers must ensure that the footwear's physical characteristics and intended use do not align with any preceding or parallel HTS classifications before assigning it to this residual category.
