6404.20.60.80 - Other 🖩

This HTS classification, 6404.20.60.80, falls under "Footwear with outer soles of leather or composition leather: Other." It is designed to capture footwear that meets the criteria of having an outer sole made from leather or composition leather and an upper constructed from textile materials, but does not fit into the more specific categories of footwear designated for men or women. Therefore, this category is a residual one for this specific combination of sole and upper materials, encompassing footwear that might be categorized by size (e.g., children's footwear) or by a specific purpose not otherwise enumerated.

The crucial distinction for this category lies in its exclusion of items classified under 6404.20.60.40 (for men) and 6404.20.60.60 (for women). If footwear is definitively identifiable as intended for male or female wear based on design, sizing, or other inherent characteristics, it would be classified under those sibling categories. Only when such specific gender designation is not applicable, or when the footwear is intended for other user groups such as children, does it fall into this residual "Other" classification.

As a leaf node, 6404.20.60.80 does not have further subdivisions. Classification into this category relies heavily on the absence of specific designation within the broader "Footwear with outer soles of leather or composition leather and uppers of textile materials" heading. Importers and customs officials should carefully examine the product's physical characteristics, intended use, and any available product information to ensure it does not qualify for a more specific classification before assigning it to this residual category.
