Good to know
Clothing and footwear under $110 are exempt from the 8.875% ($13.31) state tax and the 0.375% MCTD tax [5][5]. At $150, the sneakers are above that threshold, so the full rate applies. [5]
New York City's 8.875% ($13.31) local rate was already removed for clothing under $110, so only items above the limit are taxed. [5]
