6404.19.39.80 - Other 🖩

This HTS classification, 6404.19.39.80, encompasses "Other" footwear within a more specific grouping of textile-uppered footwear with rubber or plastic outer soles. These items are characterized by having outer soles composed primarily of rubber or plastics, and their uppers made from textile materials. Crucially, this subcategory excludes footwear that is open-toed or open-heeled, slip-on types without fasteners, and footwear featuring a prominent rubber or plastic foxing band that overlaps the upper.

This category serves as a residual designation for footwear that meets the general criteria of textile uppers and rubber/plastic soles but does not fit into more narrowly defined subheadings at this level. It is distinct from its sibling categories, 6404.19.39.40 (For men) and 6404.19.39.60 (For women), as it does not differentiate based on gender. Instead, it captures any remaining footwear that falls within the broader scope of 6404.19.39 but is not specifically classified by sex or other defining features mentioned in preceding subheadings.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS structure, there are no further subdivisions. Therefore, the classification under 6404.19.39.80 relies on ensuring the footwear meets all the preceding criteria while not being specifically covered by any other "Other" classification or a more granular subheading. Examples might include children's footwear or unisex designs that do not fit the "For men" or "For women" categories, provided they otherwise conform to the material and construction requirements.
