Overview

HTS Category 6404 encompasses footwear where the defining characteristic is the composition of its materials. Specifically, these are shoes, sandals, boots, and similar items featuring an outer sole made of rubber, plastics, leather, or composition leather, combined with uppers constructed from textile materials. This broad category captures a significant segment of the footwear market, ranging from athletic shoes and casual wear to more formal footwear, as long as the specified material combinations are met.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling HTS codes, which cover a vast array of goods from live animals to machinery, is straightforward. HTS 6404 is exclusively focused on finished articles of footwear, setting it apart from agricultural products, raw materials, or other manufactured goods. Within Section XII, it is important to note that other footwear categories exist, distinguished by their outer sole and upper materials; for instance, footwear with wholly rubber or plastic uppers would fall under different classifications.

This HTS category is further subdivided to refine classification based on the outer sole material. The subcategories, such as footwear with outer soles of rubber or plastics, and footwear with outer soles of leather or composition leather, provide a more granular approach. These distinctions are crucial for applying specific duty rates and trade regulations, allowing for precise identification of the footwear's primary components beyond the general textile upper and composite sole.
