US Customs only apply import tariffs to items over $800. (Except goods from China as of 2.5.25 )
As a boot-bag is less than $800 and is a personal import shipped from the UK, you will be not be charged a tariff by US Customs. This is known as the de minimis rule.
The de minimis exception was created in the 1930s to ease the work of customs officials who were required to collect tariffs in cases where the revenue would be less than the cost of collecting the duties. Congress raised the threshold for de minimis packages to $5 in 1978 and $200 in 1993, and then to $800 in 2016.
US Customs & Border protection state :
In particular, HTSUS 9804.00.65 allows for the duty-free importation of personal-use articles from a Column 2 country when the fair retail value of such goods is under $800.... Thus, any articles imported under this section for personal use with a value of under $800 can be imported duty free,

We have been shipping boot-bags to the USA since 2009. America is an important market for us as a small family business and we value our American customers.
No customers where charged any tariffs in 2018 during Trumps first term when he also introduced tariffs.
In the extremely unlikely event you are charged a tariff please email us and we will arrange to reimburse you.
