6404.20.20.90 - Other

This HTS subcategory, 6404.20.20.90, encompasses footwear that has outer soles made from rubber, plastics, leather, or composition leather, and uppers constructed from textile materials. Specifically, it applies to footwear where neither rubber/plastics nor textile materials constitute more than 50 percent of the weight, but where rubber or plastics make up at least 10 percent of the total weight. This classification is further refined by the value of the footwear, which must not exceed $2.50 per pair.

Within the broader category of footwear with textile uppers and non-textile outer soles, this specific code distinguishes itself from its siblings by its defined price point. The sibling categories, 6404.20.20.30 for men and 6404.20.20.60 for women, focus on the intended wearer of the footwear. In contrast, 6404.20.20.90 is determined by the economic value of the item, irrespective of whether it is designed for men or women, as long as it meets the material composition and value thresholds.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS classification database, there are no further subcategories under 6404.20.20.90. Therefore, classification within this code is final once all preceding criteria, including the material composition of the sole and upper, the relative weight of the materials, and the stated value per pair, have been met. This typically includes a wide array of less expensive, mass-produced footwear meeting these specific material and cost parameters.
