A guide for this piece: about $46, based on the 10% US charge on the declared value of goods made in Japan.
The final figure is set by US Customs and depends on where the piece was made and the kind of object it is. Many antiques over a century old carry no ordinary duty; most jewellery and leather goods add a single-digit rate.
With EMS, any charge is collected by your postal service on delivery. For pieces of significant value we can often arrange duties prepaid before dispatch.

A high top from Maison MIHARA YASUHIRO, reference A05FW701: the HANK in black cotton canvas, cut with raw edges and set on the hand-sculpted Original Sole. Marked EU 42, and honestly worn.
The Piece
The HANK takes the familiar canvas basketball shoe and lets it come undone. Panels of black canvas are joined with heavy white stitching, and the collar and quarter edges are left cut and fraying, so the upper reads as something half finished on purpose. Rubber toe caps and wide off-white cotton laces keep the classic outline in view.
Below, the Original Sole swells and folds along its length, as though softened by heat and modelled back by hand, and carries the MMY mark embossed at each heel. A small MMY Footwear tab sits at the side of the collar, and the tongue carries the house label reading Sublime meets Ridiculous, with the reference and size stamped into the lining beneath it.
The house sole at full height, worn in and characterful.

Delivery from Japan
Packed by hand and shipped insured and tracked by EMS or an equivalent express service. Import duties and taxes, where applicable, are payable on arrival. Every sale is final; ask anything you wish to know before you buy, and see our published policy.
Japanese shoe sizes are given in centimetres of foot length, checked here by hand, and makers differ by half a size or more. Compare with a pair you already wear from the same maker and allow a little margin, the quiet safeguard on a final sale. Our shoe size conversion chart sets Japan beside US, UK, EU and Korean sizes, and for anything it leaves open the curator team replies within one Tokyo business day.
