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.

White on White
With colour taken away, the hand-sculpted sole reads purely as form: a rubber wall that swells and folds like softened clay.
Best for: Wearers who want the Original Sole at its most minimal

The Hank low from Maison MIHARA YASUHIRO, reference A05FW702, in white cotton canvas, with a pale toe cap, white laces and the house's hand-sculpted sole rising in soft, melted waves. Marked EU 41.
The Piece
All white, the Hank becomes a study in form rather than colour. Without contrast to distract the eye, the sole does the talking: a thick rubber wall that swells, folds and ripples around the shoe as if it had been modelled by hand from wet clay, then stops short of the toe in a heavy rounded cap.
The upper is a clean court silhouette in off-white canvas, stitched tone on tone, with five pairs of eyelets and a padded collar. Underneath runs a brown diamond tread with the house mark set at the waist.
White on white, so the sculpture shows plainly.

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.
