A guide for this piece: about $42, 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.

The Peterson VL from Maison MIHARA YASUHIRO, reference A09FW733, in white canvas on the hand-sculpted Original Sole. Marked EU 38.
The Piece
Peterson is the house's reading of the classic canvas court shoe: white cotton canvas, a rubber toe cap and white laces through metal eyelets, cut low and close to the foot. VL stands for vintage-like, and this version is finished to look as though it had already lived a while.
Underneath sits the Original Sole, sculpted by hand so its sidewalls bulge and ripple as though the rubber had been poured into place, here toned to cream and edged with a thin black line where it meets the upper. The outsoles carry a diamond tread with the house mark set in the arch.
Inside the tongue the house prints its motto, Sublime meets Ridiculous, above the reference and size.
A light, clean pair that lets the sculpted sole lead.
