6405.20.60.60 - For women (459)

This HTS classification, 6405.20.60.60, specifically designates footwear designed for women, falling under the broader category of other footwear with uppers of textile materials. The defining characteristic for this subcategory is that both the sole and the upper of the footwear are constructed from wool felt. This material composition is crucial for accurate classification, ensuring that items made with alternative textile materials or composed of different sole materials are not incorrectly categorized.

The distinction between 6405.20.60.60 and its sibling categories is based on the intended wearer and general "other" designations. Specifically, 6405.20.60.30 is reserved for footwear of this type designed for men, while 6405.20.60.90 serves as a catch-all for any other footwear meeting the wool felt upper and sole criteria that doesn't fall under the men's or women's specific designations. This level of detail allows for precise tracking and tariff application based on gender-specific design or general categorization.

As this node represents a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification of an article under 6405.20.60.60 is final once the criteria of being women's footwear with both sole and upper made of wool felt are met. Examples of such footwear might include women's felt slippers or casual indoor shoes where the entire construction relies on the insulating and pliable properties of wool felt.
