6404.19.69.90 - Other

This HTS classification, 6404.19.69.90, designates "Other" footwear that meets the specific criteria of having outer soles and uppers made of textile materials, with the outer sole being of rubber or plastics. Crucially, these shoes are characterized by their construction: the rubber or plastic sole (or mid-sole, if present) is attached to the upper solely with adhesive. This adhesive-only attachment excludes footwear with a foxing or foxing-like band that overlaps the upper, as well as footwear where the sole extends beyond the upper except at the toe or heel.

This category serves as a residual classification for footwear that fits the broad description of textile uppers and rubber/plastic soles attached with adhesive, but does not fall under more specific sub-classifications based on gender. While sibling categories 6404.19.69.30 (For men) and 6404.19.69.60 (For women) differentiate based on intended wearer, this "Other" category encompasses footwear for other demographics or where gender-specific categorization is not applicable or clear according to the tariff.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories under 6404.19.69.90. Therefore, precise classification within this code relies heavily on meticulously adhering to all the preceding structural requirements, particularly the specific adhesive-only construction method and the exclusion of footwear with foxing or overlapping sole elements. Examples might include certain types of non-gender-specific athletic shoes, casual slip-ons, or work footwear that adhere to these construction and material specifications.
