U.S. imports of sports footwear with textile uppers and rubber or plastics outer soles (HS 640411) totaled $318.9M in July 2026, traded with 91 countries.
Importers of Sports Footwear with Textile Uppers and Rubber or Plastics Outer Soles paid $92.0M in duties in July 2026 — an effective duty rate of 29% on $316.2M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: July 2026 dataTennis shoes, basketball shoes, gym shoes, and other athletic footwear with textile uppers and rubber or plastics outer soles — the core of the global athletic footwear market — are classified here, and the heading carries significant Section 301 exposure for goods of Chinese origin. Vietnam is the leading US supplier, followed by Indonesia and China, as major brands have shifted production to Southeast Asia partly in response to trade-remedy pressures. The US tariff schedule is among the most complex in Chapter 64, with per-pair value brackets (under $3, $3–$6.50, $6.50–$12 per pair), upper fiber type (vegetable fiber vs. other textile), gender, and sole-attachment method all driving 10-digit line selection. Accurate per-pair FOB value documentation and upper material fiber content are the two most consequential data points for correct classification.

The heading uses FOB price per pair to assign footwear to value brackets (e.g., under $3, $3–$6.50, $6.50–$12). CBP uses the transaction value as declared on the commercial invoice. Because duty rates can differ across brackets, importers must ensure invoice pricing reflects the actual per-pair FOB value and retain supporting documentation in case of a CBP query.
Vegetable fiber uppers — primarily cotton canvas — are broken out in separate 10-digit lines from uppers made of synthetic textile materials such as nylon or polyester mesh. The fiber content of the upper must be determined by weight of the outer surface material, and the manufacturer's fiber content declaration or a laboratory test report may be needed to support the classification.
