6405.20.30.70 - For infants, as described in statistical note 2 to this chapter

This HTS classification, 6405.20.30.70, specifically designates footwear for infants that are further defined by statistical note 2 to Chapter 64. These items are characterized by having uppers constructed from textile materials, and more precisely, from vegetable fibers. The "infant" designation is crucial for accurate classification, distinguishing these items from footwear intended for adult consumers.

Within the broader category of "Other footwear" with textile uppers, this subcategory differentiates itself from its siblings, 6405.20.30.30 (for men), 6405.20.30.60 (for women), and 6405.20.30.80 (other), based solely on the intended wearer. While all share the characteristic of having uppers made of vegetable fibers, the primary differentiating factor here is the specific size and design tailored for very young children.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification under 6405.20.30.70 relies entirely on meeting the criteria of having vegetable fiber uppers and being explicitly designed or marketed for infants, as further clarified by the pertinent statistical note. This ensures precise categorization for a specific segment of the infant footwear market.
