Last updated: April 2026 dataLeather-upper sports footwear not elsewhere specified — covering athletic styles such as cleats, golf shoes, and specialty sport shoes — is classified here when the outer sole is rubber, plastics, leather, or composition leather. The leather upper construction distinguishes this category from textile-upper athletic footwear and typically places it in a different duty bracket under the HTS. Importers should note that the N.E.S. qualifier means styles already captured by more specific sports footwear headings (e.g., tennis or basketball shoes) are excluded, making precise style documentation critical at entry.

'N.E.S.' (not elsewhere specified) means this heading captures only sports footwear with leather uppers that does not fall under a more specific SITC category — for example, tennis or basketball shoes with rubber/plastic soles have their own heading. Importers must confirm the specific sport or end-use to avoid misclassification.
Yes. Under the US HTS, the outer sole material (rubber, plastics, leather, or composition leather) combined with the upper material and construction method determines the specific tariff line and applicable duty rate. Accurate material identification in commercial invoices and CBP entry documentation is essential.
