6405.90.90.60 - Other

This HTS category, 6405.90.90.60, serves as a residual classification for footwear not specifically enumerated in preceding subheadings of heading 6405. Heading 6405 generally covers footwear with outer soles and uppers of materials other than rubber, plastics, leather, textiles, or metal. Therefore, this subheading captures any footwear that falls under heading 6405 but does not fit into other more specific categories within 6405.90.90.

The primary distinction for this category lies in its residual nature. Unlike the sibling category 6405.90.90.30, which is specifically designated for infant footwear meeting the criteria outlined in statistical note 2 to chapter 64, this subheading encompasses all other footwear types within the scope of heading 6405. Examples could include certain types of novelty footwear, specialized occupational footwear, or footwear with unique material combinations that are not otherwise classified.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subdivisions under 6405.90.90.60. Classification within this category hinges on the determination that the footwear meets the broad criteria of heading 6405 and does not qualify for any other more specific classification, including the designated infant footwear sibling. Careful examination of the materials, construction, and intended use of the footwear is crucial to correctly assign it to this residual classification.
