6404.19.82.60 - For women

This HTS classification, 6404.19.82.60, specifically covers women's footwear. The defining characteristics for this category are an outer sole made of rubber or plastics, and an upper constructed from textile materials. Further refinement places these items within a price bracket of over $6.50 but not exceeding $12 per pair. Crucially, the textile uppers must be composed of vegetable fibers, and the outer sole's primary contact with the ground must be through textile material, excluding any materials specifically addressed by Additional U.S. Note 5 to this chapter.

This category is distinguished from its sibling, 6404.19.82.30, which applies to men's footwear under identical construction and pricing criteria. The sibling category, 6404.19.82.90, serves as a catch-all for other footwear at this level not specifically designated for men or women, or that may not meet the precise material specifications for the vegetable fiber uppers and textile-soled criteria. The focus here is on footwear designed for female wearers, meeting specific material composition and price point requirements.

As this HTS code represents a leaf node, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Classification at this level is definitive for women's footwear that meets all the specified material, construction, and value thresholds. Examples of footwear that would fall here include women's casual shoes or sandals featuring textile uppers made from materials like cotton or linen, with rubber or plastic outsoles where the textile component constitutes the largest surface area in contact with the ground, and the pair is valued within the specified range.
