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 KEITH from Maison MIHARA YASUHIRO, reference A13FW701: a court-style high-top in black and cream leather with an ankle strap, set on the hand-sculpted Original Sole. Marked EU 43.
The Piece
The upper borrows from the classic basketball high-top: a perforated cream toe, black overlays sweeping back from the laces, cream inserts at the quarter and a padded collar. Every panel edge is cut raw and finished in a warm brown edge paint. A hook-and-loop strap crosses the ankle through a white loop and carries an MMY badge, while the outer quarter is printed MMY over the model name.
Beneath it sits the Original Sole, shaped by hand in cream rubber over a black lugged base. The sidewalls swell and ripple like poured clay, so the familiar court shoe appears to have been remoulded, and no two pairs share exactly the same profile.
Basketball heritage, rebuilt by hand.

Authenticity & Care
Checked and photographed in Japan before dispatch. Wipe the leather with a soft dry cloth and feed it sparingly with a neutral cream, clean the rubber with a damp cloth, and let the pair dry naturally away from direct heat.
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.
